How far are you in the process?

I have completed my 6 months worth of nutrition appointments but missed my goal by 3 lbs so I have an appointment for Jan 22, 2013 for my last and final weigh in. Then my paper work can be submitted for approval I have one more seminar to attend at Holy Cross hospital. Good Luck to everyone

I've received my approval have most of my papers into my surgeon but my mental health eval that Kaiser can't seem to find that I did back in March...After I figure out where that went I can schedule my surgery...

I wonder how they lost that... They gave me a copy to keep for my records. I have been hearing 6 month wait after approval for holy cross hospital

Dannipo, I talked to someone else at Kaisegr and they found it....OMG I am so stressed out because of everything but now I can schedule my surgery. I'm having mine done at GBMC. Got my preop appointment today 1/23....

Glad they located it.... So happy that you have a pre-op appointment, one step closer! What is GBMC? I wish I could go somewhere other than holy cross because of the waiting list!!!

GBMC is Greater Baltimore Medical Center in Towson. I had to option of GBMC, St Agnes, or Johns Hopkins, but I went to the nutritionist in Woodlawn.

Hello. I have completed my 6 month nutrition appts in July. I have attended two information sessions with Dr. Cantor at Holy Cross Hospital. And I met with him back in October, 2012, he submiitted my name on the list for surgery.and have picked up all my prescriptions he ordered for me and now waiting for a date. There is a long wait for Dr. Cantor. I was told it would be a 5 to 6 month wait. So I'm guessing I will get a date around March or April hopefully.

I got my surgery date, I am being sleeved on 2/5!!!!!
