Wiljon W. Beltre
"4/26/07rnMet with Dr. Beltre for the first time. I was impressed... he was professional, courteous and I felt comfortable with him. He was patient and seemed interested in thoroughly answering my questions. I like the fact that he works with his wife (also Dr. Beltre) and his office staff was welcoming as well. I will attend seminar and support meeting next month and am looking forward to them.rn5/3/07rnHave been setting up required tests, appointments to get package ready to submit. Called Dr. Beltre's office with questions/requests and have nothing but praise for his staff. They are very nice, (not impatient even though I know they are extremely busy), helpful and optimistic. Moving along.rnrn5/29/07rn After much confusion I found that I do not have insurance coverage for ANY WLS or treatment. So now I am self pay and still moving along. I did receive a lot of mis-information from all parties concerned - Dr.'s Office, Insurance Co. and work. rn I attended my surgeon's seminar and mentioned that he should have someone from his office attend that is WELL versed in insurance and cost information. (because there were MANY questions and very little reliable information out there for perspective patients). We rely on our doctor's office to at least point us in the right direction to receiving accurate and correct information regarding costs and coverages.rn The seminar WAS very interesting and educational (even though I had already read a book and researched online for 5 weeks) - enough so that I changed my surgery from RNY to Sleeve Gastrectomy. I also found that Dr. Beltre is a very NICE person - not at all aloof or distant as some doctors can be. He was warm and attentive to all the people attending. I liked that. And I liked him."
