Been Going to WLS Doctor since November 2007
I have been going to a WLS Doctor and was scheduled for Surgery 2-25-08. Went thru all the hoops and was rushed my last week there to make sure everything was alright for insurance, I was in surgeon's office 2-21-08, had blood work done for the surgery on Monday and I saw another patient and she told me in front of staff that she was sorry she took my place and the office staff heard it and said no that she would be first and I would be second...On Friday, I get a call on my cell phone (1:50p.m) and the nurse told me that they had to postpone my surgery and I couldn't talk right then and I said okay..tried to call back when I could talk and they had closed their office at 2p.m. so I fumed all weekend and then Monday I called and the nurse said it was their corporate office and it would be weeks and weeks. I waited until 3-19 and called their corporate office and all of sudden I had been approved the day before and they just hadn't contact me. I was then told that I could have my surgery by the 1st of April. Called my insurance company an was told NOT THEM I was approved. I still want the surgery but not sure with that surgeon. Should I just get over it or find another doctor. (There is some things that I didn't mention) Just don't know what I should do.....
