Default Plastic Surgeons with Insurance & WLS exerience in Houston?

well y'all, it's time for me to start my PS journey. I've come so far in a year and 4 months and I'm ready for the next phase....I love the changes my body has gone through and i can't wait for the future. However, before I just start looking, I thought I'd ask if anyone has had any experience or knows of any Plastic surgeons that has experience with insurances and wls. Just fishing only cuz i have no clue where to start.

okay so.....i went to the plastic surgeon yesterday and learned a lot about insurance and plastic surgery....long story short, the insurance will pay for my tummy but it's not a tummy tuck, it's called something else that they just remove the "envelope flap".....and my boobies, well there's nothing really wrong with them but i just lost volume and if i get an augmentation, that should pretty much fix my problem. However, the insurance will not pay for that so now i have to come up with 5700 bucks to pay for that......NOW TAKING DONATIONS, I ACCEPT PAYPAL
