Thank you Laura-ven. I've been reading up on Dr. Zare already, and I'm from San Jose so I would go to Good Sam. I'm calling him tomorrow, thank you and everyone who replied. Really glad I joined this blog, probably changed my outcome for the best.

Thank you to the first two replies, you helped a lot already. I've had to jump through so many hoops with my first DR. at Valleycare in Pleasanton, that it's been two years and I still have more homework and money to spend, and still no surgery date. I'm getting frustrated and want to look elsewhere for my surgery.

I've had one Dr. appt. in 2011 for WLS. This Dr. recommended Vertical Sleeve for me. It sounds better than the Lapband and G bypass. But since that visit, I've heard bad things about the hospital where the surgery is performed. I really want the surgery but I'm unsure of the facility. Can anybody recommend a good facility in N.California. I'm 59, Female, BMI 39. Sleep Apnea, High Lipid. Insurance Preapproved.
