Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

Dr. D just did my RNY gastric bypass 3 weeks ago. Rest assured, he knows what he's doing! I did my research before I went to him...and several nurses at RGH have had their surgeries done by him. I feel great....the staff there is awesome! Very busy constantly...he has so many patients! His wife is one of the nutritionists. Joan is the other nut. They are wonderful. I returned to work today...Donna faxed me a note within 30 min! The PA (Jackie) and the NP (Nicole) are so nice...they really took care of me in the hospital...and I just saw Nickie for a follow up visit. This all of course is at the Rochester office. Good luck!!

Thanks Hakaiser! That's good to hear! I have now finished my preop psychologist and nutritionist visits. I have lost most of the preop weight too! I see Dr. D again on the 17th. I'm in Lockport, so it's the only time he's here in November. How long did it take you until you had surgery?

Hi, I did the seminar in Jan 2011, had a consult in Feb, went through all of the requirements and in Aug my surgery was scheduled for Oct 3 weeks ago. A long process.

Hi,
I have Dr. D for my surgeon too, here in Rochester. I have been pre-op since 8/25/2010.
It has taken me way too long to lose 5% and my time is almost up. I should be operated on sometime in 2012.

Wow, that sucks! How much is your amount to lose? I went on a very strick diet... it was torture! I had a slimfast for breakfast. yogurt with fiber cereal (just like granola) and a piece of fruit for lunch, then a reasonable dinner. it was torture but I made myself do it. it went pretty fast. I lost my preop 13lbs. Went back to dr in november... insurance approved me super quick (about 3 days). I go back to schedule everything 12/22. My worry now is about keeping the weight off. I still keep my breakfast and lunch diet. But my evenings are less strict... I am holding pretty steady.
