without a history 6 months of supervised weight loss?    — Amy D. (posted on February 23, 2003)

I am almost 1 year post-op and I now also work for my surgeon. I am the one who gets everyone approved. I know that every patient that I have gotten approved with MAMSI, was required to have 6 months documented weight loss attempt and a psych evaluation. They can be very difficult to get am approval. But once you give them what they want, you get approved almost immediatley. Good Luck
