I'm waiting on the approval from the corporate office after I gave them the CPT code so I can go for a visit. I then have to have them make it medically necessary to do the surgery i.e. M.O. and 6 months they will pay for it.

Did you have your band placed by a Florida Doctor? If yes I would appreciate - the name, website and price if you know it.

Anyone with info is a great help since I only know of those 3 here in FL.

Thanks :D
What part of Florida do you live in?

The Cleveland Clinic Bariatric Department is where I am go now. I had my surgery in Brooklyn 4 years ago, but moved to Florida 3 years ago. The Cleveland group in Weston, FL is good. I like them better than the group that was involved with my Lap-Band® installation surgery.
