Approved for Wrong Surgery

Dec 08, 2010


So after months and months of working toward my goal i got approved!!! Lap Band surgery here i come!! My surgery was for Dec 1st 2010 (a few days ago....) and when i went there to begin pre-op i found out he had sent in papers to my insurance to be approved for Gastric Bypass! Upon calling his office to figure out what happened i was told that my file said Lap Band and someone made the decision to file for gastric bypass without my knowlege. Now im back home without surgery and waiting to speak with the dr, who now has said he wants me to come in to his office (4hrs away!) for a sit down!!! Not sure what to do and was wondering if this has happened to anyone else???
