Dear Walter and Kelley:
Today is the 1-year anniversary of my lap-band surgery. To date, I have lost 67 pounds and I am in the best shape of my life – I don’t remember a time that I weighed as little as I do now, not even in high school. The time you spent appealing my case was invaluable and absolutely life-changing for me, and I just want to let you know how very much I appreciate all the work you put into it on my behalf. I am thankful beyond words!
God bless you!

OMG! I was NOT expecting this! I tried to call you when I received your message, but I think your office was already closed for the day. I will call back tomorrow just to say THANKS in person! Looks like Christmas came early! I will contact the doctor’s office tomorrow to schedule the surgery as quickly as possible…Words cannot express how thankful I am for your help! You have been such a pleasure to work with! I will make sure my surgeon and his office staff know how helpful you have been so they can be sure to recommend you to others that might be struggling with the same problem.

You are the best Thanks again for everything you did. I know for sure I never could have accomplished this on my own!

Hello Walter and Kelley,

I wanted to send a huge THANK YOU to you both, as well as to your team! Everything happened very quickly after my appeal hearing on June 26th, and I had my bypass surgery on July 10th !! And I went back to work on Monday July 15th, so its all been a whirlwind! I am feeling great, the weight is coming off, and I am starting to really feel like I am getting back to normal (well my new normal that is).

This would not have happened without your help, and I am forever grateful for all the work you all did to help me. I will certainly recommend you all to anyone going through the same struggle as I did. You all are just wonderful and made the process very easy. I just want you all to know how much I appreciate all your help!

Hi Walter,

Thank you so much for all your hard work. I don’t have words to express my gratitude for all you and Kelley have done for me! I agree I felt as though the case might be doomed! So excited to move forward!  Again, I am beyond thankful for all you have done!

I have done nothing but cry my eyes out for the last 30 minutes!!! I can’t even begin to tell you how grateful we are for the two of you. I have already passed your information on even before this approval came through because I could tell how genuine you are. You’re doing good work. I can’t thank you enough!!! I really think you just helped save my husband’s life, and obviously I want him here with me for as long as I can have him. You two are truly blessings to us. I know your words of encouragement mean a lot to [my husband]. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I just wanted to update you and let you know how much we appreciated your help in getting us this approval. My wife had the procedure done in October and has been doing great. Already she has lost weight and her sugar counts are stable and doing fine. The Doctor has taken her off Insulin and High Blood Pressure medicine as a result. She feels real good on the progress she made so far. Once again, thanks for all your help.

Thank you very much for your quick reply and the helpful tips on what should be done. I will proceed as you recommended and contact you again should I need additional assistance. I appreciate knowing that there is someone out there that is willing to fight to help me have a better life. You need to know how much just just the words in your email mean to me. Thanks again and have a wonderful new year!wing that there is someone out there that is willing to fight to help me have a better life.

Thank You, so much. I cannot express my gratitude for what you and
Walter do. It is absolutely overwhelming to have someone that has your
back and knows exactly what avenues to take to seek approval. I know
that it is not always successful but, I am so grateful for the outcome.
I spoke with my doctors office yesterday and my surgery is scheduled for
December 12.  Merry Christmas to me!

Please give Walter my heart felt, Thank You!

I just called my doctor’s office and the scheduler was absolutely amazed the denial got overturned!  She said she has done tons of appeals for patients and it doesn’t ever usually work out this way. I can’t speak highly enough of Kelley and the Lindstrom group.

I hired them for my appeal. They were great and I was approved a week after submission and my case was not an easy win. I was a revision case and Walter’s appeal letter brought tears to my eyes.
