QUESTION FOR THE VETS!!

HEY EVERY ONE IM WAITING FINALLY ON THE GO FROM INSURENCE AND MY SURGEON IM A BIT WORRIED ABOUT BEING DENIED IVE BEEN IN THE PROCESS FOR THE LAST 13 MONTHS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ALL YOUR OPINIONS ABOUT POSSIBLY GETTING SURGERY DONE OUTSIDE THE US I HAVE RESEARCHED FOR DOCTORS IN MEXICO AND DR.JOYA SEEMS LIKE A GOOD CANDIDATE AND HIS FEES ARE RESONABLE (12500) ALL INCLUSIVE... PLEASE FEEL FREE TO GIVE ME AS MUCH ADVICE AS YOU PLEASE I WILL TURN 21 THIS MARCH SO IF MY INSURENCE DOESNT COME THRU FOR ME IM HOPING BY OCTOBER TO DO THE SURGERY. THANK YOU TO ALL... G xx

i don't know anything about going out of the country, but i got denied the first time and appealed it and got approved. and a friend of mine's mom got denied 3 times, found some lawyer for about 3 grand and got approved instantly.

but good luck with whatever happens! i know how it feels to get denied, just keep trying!

 If you have insurance, I wouldn't worry about the fee - just find the best doctor. Besides, your insurance company is probably going to want you to have the surgery in the U.S.

i know im just at the point of waiting for a yes or a no and the its just go time but i do realize there is the change of being denied and i really eed this surgery im only 20 and i feel like i cant live and realize i wont live longer if i dont help myself. thank you for your advice

 Don't let them tell you no, because they love to do it. It's how they make all their money. Just keep fighting!

Personally I would never have surgery in Mexico. No offence to anyone who has done it, but it really scares me.I have heard way too many horror stories of people going down there and comming back with botched surgery. I just feel you can research a million times over and still may not get what you want/had hoped for. And that goes for anything anywhere. Not just surgery in Mexico. Another thing to think of is where are you going to do your follow up appointments? Ill be praying your insurance comes through for you. And if I were you I'd fight them and not let them deny you. Good luck!

MY GOD THANK ALL OF YOU FOR COMMENTING AND GIVING ME ADVICE I WONT LET THEM TURN ME DOWN!!! IM AT THE POINT THAT IVE BECOME SO SCARED OF BEING DENIED THAT OUTSIDE THE U.S. BECAME AN OPTION. BUT ITS TRUE WHERE WOULD I HAVE MY FOLLOW UPS?? ITS SO GREAT TO HAVE A SITE LIKE THIS WHERE YOU CAN SHARE AND ASK PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING THREW THE PROCESS R HAVE ALREADY DONE IT. RIGHT NOW IM JUST WAITING...CROSSING MY FINGERS AND HOPING ALL GOES WELL..
