Finally - after 7 business days, United Healthcare approved me for the Sleeve! I am now double checking that I still want to go with my current surgeon, and then getting a date. If I go with my current surgeon I could be scheduled sometime this month! I am somewhat considering a different surgeon who has done 500 Sleeve operations to-date (but surgery wouldn't be until end of March), while the current one has about 250 to-date. But, people I know are happy with the current, and supposedly he does a tight Sleeve...decsions, decisions...
