Mrs Sabre 1 Posted February 14, 2006 I called Dr. V's office yesterday. Having already done all of my preliminaries, Stephanie said I could potentially be scheduled for surgery very quickly, maybe within weeks. Dr. K's office e-mailed me stating they still did not have an update for me. I went ahead and told them I was going to pursue Lap-Band through another physician. Dr. K e-mailed me back personally, and was VERY gracious, stating - Karen, I am sorry we could not get things arranged for you. I think you are an excellent candidate for the lap band and are going to very well. If you ever have any questions or problems, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best of luck.

sunsett 2 Posted February 14, 2006 I bet you'll get a date very soon. My GF got approved and had a date within a week. They called her yesterday and she's starting her liquids tomorrow. So I'm sure things will go quick for you. I'm excited for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the best me 6 Posted February 14, 2006 Karen, you have been so patient. I was kind of wondering when you'd decide to change docs. Kuwada sounds like a lovely person, but to have to wait so long for a date is so discouraging. I know you are anxious to get moving again. Good for you. He'll have a nice Lap Band practice when he gets it moving. But you need to get moving, too!! I'm sure we'll be hearing good news soon, and a DATE for you! Woooot!

Dragonwillow 0 Posted February 14, 2006 I'm sorry things didn't work out with dr. K's office, but you will really like Dr. V. I liked him. You have more patient than I ever was. Like angie said, hopefully you will have a date or be banded by our March meeting. Lookout summer, here comes sabre in her bathing suit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
