I have also tried finding a LAP Surgeon doing RNY and in Cigna network. I had a difficult time so I am going with the Open RNY. Good luck on your journey.

Hi Tracey:) This contact maybe getting to you alittle to late , but here it goes...Are you talking about the ajustable gastric banding (AGB). If so there is a Dr in Nashville named Dr Carles E. Morton and he is network with Cigna PPO. I know the travling distance might be an issue but it might be a solution if you can't find anyone in the area. Dr. Morton is giving a seminar Nov-14th-2002. He requires you to attend a seminar before the first consult!! Hope this helps! -L
