Anxious
Jul 20, 2009
I am so nervousI do not know if I should be. I got my approval in hand on Wednesday 15th of last week so I called the doctor and they told me that they would contact me to schedule my first office visit. She then said she already had the approval letter in hand and they are a month behind on appointments. So here is where I get a little worried on my approval letter it states and end date of Sept 16th. I wonder if that is the last day that approval will be valid and if so would I have to go through the approval process all over again. I hope not. I hope I am just nervous for nothing. Hope I here from them soon.
Got my approval
Jul 15, 2009
I called my insurance company and I almost fell out my chair when they told me I was approved. The insurance was fine to work with I did not have any problems other than it took them almost 30 days for my approval. But, anyway about five minutes later my doctors office called and said they had the approval letter in hand. Now I must wait to get and appointment for my initial consultation with my doctor since I found they have a waiting list of people waiting on appts. I was told that could take up to 2 weeks but that is fine with me I feel I have one of the hardest hurdles over with. And let me not forget to say thank you to GOD for making all of this possible.

First office visit
Jan 22, 2009
1-22-09 was my first office visit to a doctor who I heard was great. When I arrived it was okay filled out the normal paperwork ans waited and waited and waited. First problem appt scheduled for 8am Dr shows up at 11:30am was not called back until 12:10pm and when I did go back they said I would be weighted I know how much I weight but I figured that the Dr would want a weight in office nope the only thing that they did check was my temp and blood pressure. Then I had to wait in the back another 45min to see the Dr so I had arrived at 7:45am and it was 1pm when I finally saw the Dr. When he came in he introduced himself and started to talk I could not get in a word let alone ask a question. On top of all that he was not very encouraging he stated that it may be a year before he would even submit the paperwork to the insurance company then wait to be scheduled an op date once approved which he said could be another 3 to 6 months.
I am not going to let that stop me since I did not have a good feel for that Dr anyway. I will just move on. I have a seminar with a very experienced Dr on 1-24-08 who I know for sure is great. Should have just went with my heart in the first place and not try to rush things and wait for this Dr. I know it may take a while but he is very experienced and I hope it will not take a year just to submit my paperwork.
