Default Hello, new here and waiting for surgery date :)

Hello. I received the insurance approval on May 23rd for the RNY, and now I'm waiting...and waiting...and waiting for the surgeon's office to set a date for surgery. I'm trying to be patient....trying...to...be .....PATIENT! LOL.

Anyways, just wanted to say hello.

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.
