this is what I found. PACE (Pre-operative Assessment, Consultation, and Education) is a program designed to make it easy and convenient for you to have all your pre-operative tests conducted at one time and place.

I am assuming that this is Pace: PACE (Pre-operative Assessment, Consultation, and Education) is a program designed to make it easy and convenient for you to have all your pre-operative tests conducted at one time and place. You will also receive all the information you will need to help hasten the healing process. Simply come to the PACE Center at your scheduled time and a team of health professionals will begin the process for preparing you for your procedure.

Yep, pre-op tests. Mine was meeting the anesthesiologist, they did an EKG, drew blood, did blood pressure, listened to my lungs and a couple of other things. It took about an hour. If they find any issues they will alert your surgeon. They found an abnormality with my EKG so I had to have my primary doctor give me clearance. He just looked at an old EKG and saw the same thing and said nothing was wrong and it is just the way my heart beats.. I dunno.. My mom always said I marched to the beat of a different drummer.. I didn't know she meant it literally.. lol :P

      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.
