Hi Everyone,

Well, I've been on this site a few time since joining and now I think it is time to fully commit. After completing my pre-approval process for Kaiser I have been referred to a surgeon in Maryland at Holy Cross Hospital. I am slightly disappointed as I was anticipating going to Virginia Hospital Center. I wanted to know if anyone has gone to Holy Cross Hospital for their procedure.

Thank you in advance :D

I am just strating my process with Kaiser, the Dr. they told me Was Cantor and I would have it done at Holy Cross also. Can you tell me how long the process took you with Kaiser?
