Surgeon Testimonial

Subhashini Ayloo MD
So far I just had my first consult with her, she is AMAZING. She really knows her stuff and put me at ease regarding a terrifying experience. I feel confident in my decision not only of the surgery but of the surgeon.

Well as I'm sure you assumed, they denied the appeal.  Told me there was nothing to appeal and that it would do no good, they wouldn't even look at it.  So fine.  I'm still waiting.  Now we have changed insurances and I work for United Healthcare....Well my plan has a specific exclusion.  Wonderful huh?  Well luckily we have Illinois Medicaid as secondary and from what I hear they cover the surgery if you meet the qualifications.  Yes I do.  i mean, come on.  I just had a new baby on July 16th so I am more than ready for this.  I want to keep up with my kids.  My daughter will be 5 in Nov and I sometimes just sit around and think about what it would be like if I could go do things with her.  Take her to six flags, go to the park, go swiming....things I can't do now.  I can't even walk with her.  I hate taking her places and having to tell her "I can't do that I'm too big."  I know she loves me, but I know she gets frusterated because I can't ever do anything.  I want to be there for my kids.  My mom was never really there for me, always pushed me to the side....I want to be there for them.  I want to be an active mother, but unless something gives with my weight, its not going to happen.  So now I have an appointment with a doctor in decatur IL on Oct. 1st.  I just can't find any information on him as to whether or not he is a good surgeon.  I guess I will go and have the consult and see what my gut feeling is.  I'm hoping to get the RNY.  I would like to lose 210 lbs, but more importantly, I want to be able to move better.  I have such bad hip and knee pain its horrible.  I will keep you updated after my appt.
