You'll just need to have different documents ready to send if the lender asks for them. And of course, there are quick loans that might be helpful in your case (On this site, for example), though it is better to pay such a loan as quickly as possible in order not to overpay.
Hi, I had my surgery with Dr Shillingford on 8/17/22. I had the surgery at the hospital and not the out patient center...
- Is the surgery painful? The only part that was painful for me was the air that is trapped after, but walking and burping took care of that by the next morning.
- did anyone have the surgery at the Palm Beach Gardens outpatient center? I was at Coral Hills, I believe you just have a shorter stay at the outpatient center, like release that night, I was released the next afternoon.
- did you have lovonax shots after and if so for how long? Yes, everyone has to do them, it is to keep you from getting blood clots, as abdominal surgery runs a high risk. it is only 2 weeks and very easy to do.
- any complications and regrets? Zero regrets. It's only been a month, but I am down about 20 lbs since surgery, and that is with a stall (happens a lot the first few weeks). Definitely worth it. Just make sure you get your fluids in!
- any positives ( greatly welcomed ) Not being controlled by food and weight is a liberating thing. Its all an investment in the future!

There are requirements that need to be met before one is approved for WLS by both the insurance and surgeon performing the surgery. It really doesn't matter how much you weigh. The first step would be getting a referral to a bariatric surgeon if you haven't already.

Most insurance have their own requirements and many of the surgical programs do to. The first thing I would do is contact my insurance company to find out what the coverage options and requirements are. If you're not using insurance but are self pay, you likely can skip that step and just understand the surgical requirements for the practice you go with.
