33yrs Old...4 Kids....CONSIDERING Bariatric Surgery (Sleeve) - Covington, LA

in April I was told right before my 4th nutrition visit that Dr. Dominguez of Covington La will no longer be performing bariatric surgery whether its paid out of pocket or through insurance/Medicaid. This is a problem for me because no one else will do the surgery with my insurance because of my location. This really crushed me because I was suppose to have the procedure done in July and now I am at a dead end. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I am sooooo aggravated....Friday I found out the surgeon that I want to do my sleeve WILL NOT take payments from my insurance. He stated that he has done surgeries under that insurance company and has not got a payment. My consult was approved but its him that won't take my insurance. So I had to go talk to my PCP so that she could gather paperwork to send to my insurance to change my insurance provider. Sleep apnea morbidly obese (bmi over 40) bone and joint pain in my back and knee pain should get my request to switch approved....well I am hoping it does...FINGERS CROSSED....????
