Find out who your insurance does cover and ask Dr. Randall if he has had any dealings with them. Also run the names by your PCP. Hope this helps. I paid out of pocket to see Dr. Crump.

Thanks for responding. I have been trying to get input from my pcp but she has not called me back yet. I was thinking of paying out of pocket too since this is the only obstacle I have right now to having the surgery. Of course it depends on the cost.

I was in the same situation as you. Dr. Crump didn't except my insurance at the time, I was going to be self pay but I knew with my insurance i would have had to seen her at least three times. I ended up going to Merrimack Family Couseling in Nashua N.H. I beleive his name was Dr. Flynn who specializes in WLS pateints mainly at a different office but I saw him in Nashua N.H. His number is (603) 888-4347. I tried to go through my insurance book and most people had no idea what I was talking about. Dr. Flynn served the purpose. Good Luck!
