Hi!
I am on Medicare, and therefore insurance was not an issue (it's covered). But it still took 7 weeks from info meeting to surgery, and I'm so glad because I had opportunities to educate myself.
Even so, I didn't learn all I really needed to know. My suggestion to you is to buy Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies - it has become my Bible. I got it on amazon.com, used (in excellent condition) for less than $12 including shipping. Some powerful info in there to make your journey all it can be.
