Surgeon Testimonial

Thirumalairaj Jayakumar M.D.
I picked Dr. Turnquest to perform my surgery He has a great personality, very soft spoken, nice guy. The first time I met him was at the seminar, he was very informative. The seccond time was at his office for my first visit. His staff is great! Ericka is working very hard to get everything I need to submit to my insurance co. She is very helpful, nice, and knows her stuff, that alone is very helpful. This is what I thought in the beginning. WRONG!!! Hope if you use them you have a cut and dry case. If there is any work to be involved, forget it. They seem to only want to work on case's that don't require any effort. I have now switched surgeons, and have gone to NuWeigh. They know what they're doing.

.Just thought I'd update. Well, I fianlly got my denial. They denied me on 3 different things. 1) said my bmi fell below 40 twice, 2) said my sleep apnea wasn't sever enough, & 3) said didn't have a complete 5 yr history. I was so bummed! I called my insurance co and talked to the nurse that viewed my case, he was so nice very helpful. He told me what I needed to do. He said he left a msg for Ericka that Dr. T would need to do a peer to peer. She said no, he didn't do those. I said well what now? I said ok, I guess we appeal right? She said she didn't think we should appeal because it would be to much work! I'm getting a little upset at this point! I hung up with her started writing my appeal letter.
