I'm in Montgomery County, Upper Providence Township. I plan to have my surgery at PENN. Have you scheduled your surgery? I have two more months (mandatory insurance waiting period).

I haven't scheduled it yet. I had my seminar with the surgeon on Thursday. I have to call my dr on Monday and let her know that I decided on surgery and to change my appointment on the 19th to reflect starting the program for the surgery. So I should have my physical when I go in. Hopefully they'll set the date then. This has been a long time coming.

I was sleeved by Dr Boorse on 1/16. He's fantastic, and the nursing staff was great during my overnight stay!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
