This Surgery Is All I Think About



Recommended Posts

Yes, all sleeved and 10 days in feeling great! I am in New Zealand and here we have different systems and with public health care available for all there is not much need for private medical insurance. The surgery is available free in my area for qualifying patients, under public health, but I went for self pay so I wouldn't have to wait as the process can take up to 2 years.

Praying you get your approval and get the earliest date possible. I will be sleeved on July 7th and everyday is a countdown for me. Best of blessings to you.

Try entering his name in the physician's search box at the top of the page. It will show you anyone who's rated the doctor. Then you could send them a message to get their opinion. You can also read the reviews to help you make your decision.

The interval between selecting a surgeon and getting sleeved depends on several factors. The surgeon's work load, insurance requirements, pre-op tests and evaluations, etc. Good luck!
