My mom, two sisters and brother-in-law all work for Verizon Wireless. My mom has Cigna and has finally received an approval for open rny. She has yet to have scheduled surgery but will be doing so shortly with Dr. Wittgrove in San Diego (I had surgery with Dr. Wittgrove 7 weeks ago and have lost 45 pounds). My mom had a rough time getting approved at first. Had to go through an appeal but she's finally won. As far as I know her doctor is writing her out on FML and she'll be taking a little more than a month off. She is just beginning the process. I know she has many coworkers who've had the surgery while working at Verizon. They seem pretty sympathetic. Feel free to email me for more info. Good luck!
