it seems like the 12 week options class is a Kaiser SoCal thing. I'm starting at Kaiser Richmond, as well. We just have the orientation/nutrition class, meeting with surgeon, meeting with psych and then the meeting with the case manager to schedule surgery once you lose the weight. I had the class 1 week after referral, meeting with surgeon the following week and then a 5 week wait for the psych.. I go 9/8.

New! Kaiser Richmond
SweetPotato replied to slynn_90's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just started the process at Kaiser Richmond and I'm a therapist. It's my understanding that clinical diagnoses will not bar you from having the WLS. They do want to make sure that you are stable enough to handle the surgery, that emotional eating has been addressed and that you have a support system, however. Wondering if you went to the psych eval... I'm doing mine 9/8.
