I moved from NC to FL last year. I'm in NW Florida. Mary Esther to be exact.

Hello, I am Liz from Miami and it has been 11 years since I had my surgery. I loss 145 pounds but five years ago after a stressful relationship which I am no longer in thank God. I have put back 50 lbs
I wish I could find a exercise buddy because I really need someone that can help me to get motivated as I can help them too.

 No, unfortunately, they do not! I will be on Medicaid as of May. So, I have been calling around like crazy to get my stuff in order so I can begin getting approved as soon as possible. Well, I called Dr Nye's office and was adivsed that they have no contract with Medicaid and therefore do not accept them. I was then given the number for Lee Memorial (in Lee county) and Shands Hospital in Fort Myers. The representative I spoke to at Lee Memorial told me that she has been getting call after call with the same question and they do not accept Medicaid. So, I caled Shands and for 2 days the Bariatric representative has had her calls forwarded and is not available. So I will call back Monday at 8 am to make SURE I am not missing her by calling after a certain time of day. I called the doctor's office at Sacred Heart and they have been unavailable for 2 days to ask for sure if they take Medicaid. So, if ANYONE reading this post has any updated info, PLEASE message me with as much info as possible. I would greatly appreciate it!
