Asked By:kaiserpatient in Palm Desert, CA

I will have a oritentaion on the 28th with a plastic surgeon in Los Angeles. My doctor said I was overweight and it can interfere with my approval. Is that true? I am 5'2 150lbs. I have the common "large breast" symptoms (pain and redness under breast) I am currently a 36ddd and I want to reduce to a smaller size. (Depends on how much they approve) Can I please get some tips on how to get insurance to cover me? And if you got covered by insurance, what was the process? (Btw i have kaiser)
