Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  500 Applicants before me!!!! Oh my, I received a call this morning from the WLS Surgery Center. The Coordinator stated that there are 500 applicants to be looked through before they even get to me! She said that right now she is scheduling individuals that have approved applications for the end of June. In the meantime they require on class before the initial visit. Of which is held once a month, I will be going June 4th. I should of asked how many applications they go through in a week. Now I am worried, maybe I will not qualify. |

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | It's all a process. My docs office had the seminars once a month too and there were LOTS of people there. How many docs are there? As long as you get your place in line, they will get to you! Maybe by the time you get all the other stuff done, you'll be up!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | That was her nice way of saying when we get to your application we will call you. Honey dont stress it ok. I agree with Kelly by the time you go though your steps it will be your turn. I might have missed a post you telling us what you have done so far..... but if you dont mind telling again we might can guide you though some of it including contacting your insurance company. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I was self pay and it took me over a half year to get my surgery. My daughter had her surgery in Dec. of 2006 and I started my process in Feb. and I first got my surgery on Sept. 10. Their are 3 doctors that do gastric bypass in Fargo. But I took the same doctor that did my daughters surgery. I had to go to appointments with the doctors, meetings and then 3 months trying to get as much weight off as possible for a safer surgery. It felt like it took forever to get to the day of the surgery but it sure was worth the wait and it came before i knew it. So the surgery will be here before you know it and it comes so fast, just keep yourself busy till then.
