And so it begins....

Hi everyone,
       Let me give you short background about myself. My names Laura and I'm 23 years old. When I was 10 I had braces, however I was a stubborn child and did not listen to my orthodontist very often. Well here I am today deciding to get jaw surgery because my teeth did not stay straight and my jaw was set back a little.
Back in July 2011 I saw a site that talked about corrective jaw surgery and I knew right away that I would be interested in this procedure. I saw an orthodontist (Dr. Apton) and he said I would make a good candidate for jaw surgery. He gave me the number to an oral surgeon he often works with (Dr. Stephanie Drew)  Immediately I made an appointment with her and it was great. She was probably the nicest doctor I've ever met and was able to answer everything I wanted to know about the surgery. However, there was one problem; my medical insurance. I was not in her network which made me extremely sad because I was so set on this surgeon. But then good news fell upon my ears and I found out the other insurance my job offered was the insurance that they take. So I had to wait till February 2012 for my new insurance kick in.
