 Does anyone have a copy of their psychiatric evaluation clearance letter for weight loss surgery?  The "dr" Im using doesnt have a template and is "contacting his associates" for one .. so thought if I could get a template (just remove your name / private info from it first) - I could STOP THIS "hurry up and wait game".  PLEASE - if you have one.. could you PLEASE email it to me ... [email protected]

Thank you SO MUCH!
Love, hugs & prayers

I don't have a copy, for some reason didn't keep it, but what I did was ask my surgeon what specifically he was looking for, then wrote that down and gave it to my psychiatrist.  That way he knew exactly what issues to address.

University of Pennsylvania has a nice list of what they want in a letter. I think one of the New York City centers does, too.

 Thanks all for the replies - however I dont need a list of items the psych needs to "ask" / put in letter - as I have already given him one of these - he is currently searching for an "approved template" to work with (basically something he can just input the info into regarding me specifically - that has already been proven to be accepted by insurance - as he is afraid - being his first clearance - of me not getting approval solely due to his letter)
But I called his office today and they have informed me that he has in fact gotten this template that he was looking for and they should have my letter ready within a week.  (guess it takes a week to type one page document.. they need to take KEYBOARD at middle school level to help them with this problem lol)

But again - thanks all for the replies - will keep updates of all things in my blogs :-)
Love, hugs & prayers
