I'VE GOT A DATE!!!

I was approved by Aetna PPO after about two weeks and my surgery will be with Dr. Wasserman on January 11th. Does anybody know Wasserman? I was having Greenbaum but he's on a fellowship in California for six months to learn a new technique. So I either have Wasserman or wait six months.

congrat Judy - my date is for dec 21 4 days and counting -good luck and stay positive - im sorry i donot know those drs -Jo

Joann, the best of luck to you. Please let us know how you are feeling when you get home and are able to sit up straight at a computer. I'll be praying for you!!!

hi Joann...goodluck on the 21st, I will be saying a prayer for you. Judy, I have never heard of Wasserman, is this person filling in for Dr. Greenbaum? Makesure you do a good check on your surgeon before you settle. Remeber to ask how many procedures was performed, complication rate, how many deaths. How is Dr. Greenbaum, what is his deathrate?

well I got his name wrong. It's Wasser, not Wasserman. Yes, he's a part of Greenbaum's team. Greenbaum is gone for six months to California, learning a new technique for handling people who are 400-500 pounds. Somebody told me he may never be back and I should go ahead. So that's what I'm going to do.

thanks judy and big chyckie 0 very nervous but will leave it in gods hands thaks again Jo
