Yes, you have to have the tests done and then visit Dr. Hornstein. I called Linda 10 days after tests and she made my date with Dr. Hornstein, and then second day after visit I called her again and got my date.. I also got put on cancellation list as I do not work and am ready.. Now! except he wants the 2 week pre op diet. hmmmm.

Canadians Only Please! - Do you take your shoes off?
Katie59 replied to argon's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have a new house and ceramic floor tiles, so my dog hair would not show and I insist people leave their shoes on.... I like that I have no dust or dog hair... cause I can mop and dry mop.... and so please leave them on and them you will not bother about the broken glass or other objects on that darn hard floor... -

hi.. you live in North Van! I live in Chilliwack and am going to a Dr. in Delta... Dr. Woodhead.. I am so excited to be having it done locally... I lost this thread "60's" and could not find my way back to it so glad you sent me an email response.... I clicked andclicked and could not get back to the "60's" group..... I think we are special.. as are the plus 70's of course... but sure am looking forward to this.. Have been on every diet ever made and now with osteoarthritis. cannot do exercise so this is the only thing and I know it will work... I am so exicted for next friday,......

HI. MY NAMEIS kATHY TOO, i KNOW NOTHING BUT SEEING MY DR. HERE IN CANADA mAY 16 AND AM VERY EXCITED. WE HAVE TO PAY UP HERE.... AND i AM 60... SO... LETS KEEP IN TOUCH...

yes.... I do not have another diet left in me... My "thin" friends have lots of ideas.... and my fat friends... well I do not have one that , like me, has been on every diet known to mankind... so I know that my decision is right... If you have thought it through... You are where you are supposed to be... and God will be with you.. I am telling my "church" friends and they are the only ones that are - at least no negative.. and some are supportive.. so God Bless and be with you.. and I will pray for you.... Kate
