Shouldnt be concerned. Hr may have had a cancellation or possibly has other stuff to do. Surgeons don't work full days anyway lol

Mine is with Dr. Garcia on a Saturday as well (May 11th) and if not for the girl I met here and her friend switching to my day so we could all go together, I would have been his only one too! I think it's a good thing!! :)

You all are lucky, dr Garcia is great! I am 7 months out and at goal, scars are very faint. Only issue was severe nausea after surgery, which went away with drugs and a good nights skeep

      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.
