"My husband had Open Bariatric Surgery last year. He has had a very positive experience. Dr. Sax and his team were very supportive and easy to deal with.
My "road to approval" was a little more cloudy because they wanted to make sure that I was making the choice for myself -vs- pressure from my husband. I was instructed to go for a couple extra sessions of counseling.
Once all was complete, the authorization process went extremely well."
