In was at florence last week. Deborah and Pretty in Pink were correct. You can't go wrong with florence. I am so glad we got the opportunity to change. One MAIN thing with Florence was the call button. Mi doctors does not have it. Once I pushed the call button they were there. The nurses were so sweet and I didn't want for anything.

I wonder if Dr Garcia will start to move his surgerys to there - like I know there's other people on my day so I hope it doesn't muck them around if they're made to move. alma said it was no problem. Also I've asked if my friend and I can be first - I read one lady didn't go till almost 5 ... If we are first that gives us another day to heal as we are travelling quiet a lot after. We are also staying an extra night it TJ just to be sure.

Interesting, I didn't know we had an option, wasn't offered one, I was just booked at florence. And believe it or not, I was kinda disappointed because I had read so much more about Mi Doctor. But now I guess I'm in the better spot after all. Cool!

******FROM MY COORDINATOR******

THis is great that you have started a thread about the Florence Hospital, I will provide you with the 800 number to the hospital so you can include that on the forum. Yes it is quieter and nicer in my opinion but more than anything, it is a more equipped hospital. Thank you for starting the thread!! this is great

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
