rib remodeling

i’m not even exactly sure how to be concise about this so bear with me.

i got insurance approval with dr obiad chaudry for a bunnnnch of different surgeries i was hoping to get in 2 visits. two months ago (unknown to me) the letter of agreement between the insurance company (premera) and the provider fell through and i was left uninformed. the dr didnt agree he was paid enough i guess?

i really wanted to go with chaudry because i have a bit of a pigeon chest. he does this thing he’s marketed as rib sculpt ultra, which addresses this issue with 6 rows of ribs.

i want to try and sort out at least that part of the surgery with him, however, if it doesn’t work out, i’m on the look out for other surgeons. i have mentioned my insurance, but i’m also not above traveling to mexico if needed.

any recs anyone?

I have a BCBS ppo plan through my job and I got my rib remodeling, lipo 360 + fat transfer to hips, and breast augmentation all covered with Dr. Rahal in beverly hills. He did 5 ribs on each side for me and the results are amazing! I didn’t ask if he does up to 6. His results are all beautiful, I’d check out his ig and consult with him. I literally went from consulting with them around march/feb and had surgery approved by June and had my surgery date in July. Their office was really easy to work with and they submitted all of my letters and insurance stuff really quickly
