Surgeon Info:
Surgeon: Antonio Macatol, M.D.
My first impression of Dr. Macatol was that..."wow, he is really small...he must need a step ladder to get around all of our large bodies!!!" He was wonderful! VERY informative and seemed quite passionate about what he does. My first visit with him was prompt and thorough. He made sure that I knew exactly what the surgery entailed and the risks of surgery. He was very happy to answer any of the MANY questions I had. Dr. Macatol is HUGE on support groups; before, during and after this journey. He also recommended this site for further information. Dr. Macatol is VERY strict about aftercare. You must attend support groups {which are monthly} and see him every 6 months, well...forever! In that small man is tremendous heart who has already saved many lives! His right hand woman, Joyce...has been wonderful as well. At times she definately seems overloaded, but she pulls through. I did not have to deal with my insurance company at all, Joyce did all that. I would rate Dr. Macatol and Joyce, overall about a 9 out of 10! They make a wonderful team
Insurer Info:
Connecticare
Connecticare was wonderful! I didn't have to deal with them at all! Dr. Macatol's secretary, Joyce, faxed everything in and it took 24 hours to approve!!!!! YAY! Thank you Connecticare!!!
