These are great questions kb88! I will be sure to use most, if not all of these questions when I am meet with my surgeon in mid-March. Thanks!

Hi Everyone! So happy to see that there are so many people that have gone through Kaiser! I am going through Kaiser South San Francisco. I have completed my first class and just had my appointment with the nurse practitioner yesterday. I just did my blood work today, on Monday 3/3 I have two more classes, then on 3/11 I have my sleep apnea test. I also have my appointments with the surgeon, the psychiatrist and a follow up phone appointment with the nurse practitioner all in March. I am surprised at how fast this is moving along! I am going to be meeting with Dr. Le who will be me surgeon. I decided firmly on the sleeve and am really excited with how this is progressing!

So I am new here. I was wondering if anyone has had their surgery done through Kaiser? I have already had my physical and gone to the "lady doctor." I have also attended the WLS introduction class as required. I know that my physician has sent the referral in which was then kicked back to her pending me speaking with my psychologist. I have had my psychology appointment and everything is good to go on her end and my physician has sent the referral back over to the bariatric team at another facility (my home facility does not preform bariatric surgeries). I am just wondering what happens from this point, where it goes from here? Also, does it take days, weeks, months for the process? Thanks!
