Plastic surgery

Hello everyone it's been a while since I posted I had my second visit with the PS. I was there in February but my hemoglobin was low so my PCP didn't give me the letter that was needed to give to the PS. After being on Repliva prescription iron pills for 6 weeks my hemoglobin went from a 6 to a 10 so he gave me the letter of necessity to give to the PS... so I went and the PS read the letter one from my PCP and the other from the surgeon who did the bypass and he said they were good and he went and got his nurse and he took pictures of my stomach so that he can submit them to the insurance I have Aetna POS. He said I will be hearing from him in about 3 weeks... His name is Dr.Lalla he's in West Orange. So please pray for me those who believe in the power of prayer. Thanks

Good morning Joanne. I just want you to know you are in great hands. Dr. Lalla did my TT and BL/BR at the end of November. He knows his stuff and will make you feel very comfortable both physically and emotionally. I had occasion to call him twice in the few days after my discharge from the hospital and both times he called me back within the hour. I am so pleased with myself and I owe a good part of that to Dr. Lalla. If you have any questions let me know. The best of luck to you. Wilma

Good Morning Wilma It's good to finally hear from someone who has experience with Dr. Lalla yes I have a few questions for you or should I say several (LOL) 1. was it done through your insurance 2.If so did he charge you extra for what the insurance wasn't going to pay for 3. what hospital does he operates out of and how long was your hospital stay.

Hi Joanne, It sounds as though you are on your way to finally having your plastic surgery. Please keep me posted on your progress. Carla

Hi carla You look great gurl!!!!! I have a question how do I obtain the century card and your pictures are great as soon as I get some time I will upload more pictures how your eating. all I have to say is that God is sooo good since this surgery there's have been soooo many changes in my life and it all was for the good. One day soon we will have to meet I love clothes shopping but I also miss Lanebryant and ashley stewarts but the Gap and Newyork and company is just fine (LOL) Joanne

Hi Joanne, I've sent a post to the main forum message board and a kind person did it for me. NY and Co is going to make me broke as they are always having sales. Now they have a 40% off everything sale. I too shop at the Gap as well. I don't miss the plus size stores. They overcharge for clothes and the clothing didn't last. I'm happy to be able to shop in stores that aren't specializing in plus sizes.

I'm waiting now for approval since my surgeon and my PCP cleared me now they wrote the letters of medical necessity and my Plastics Doctor he took the pictures of my tummy and submitted them to aetna. It will take a least 4 weeks for me to hear somethiing back now its' been three weeks..... the Dr name is Sanjay Lalla 383 northfield ave ste 102 West Orange NJ 973-324-9455. you can call to see if he participates in your insurance
