One of the pre op appointments in St. Elizabeths is with Dr. Vandor...how is this appointment and for what? Thanks!

I am not sure who is Dr Vandor however they have lots of doctors on staff. I chose Dr. Mc cause I like him, good bedside manners, way more sleeve experience . They do give you a choice to pick what doctor would you like?

Hi! My surgeon is Dr. Mc too! They put my first appointment with him and I felt so good he is a wonderful dr. I think Dr. Vandor is an internist dr., its one of my preop appointment there, did you see any other doc there in your preop appointments? Maybe is a physical exam?

Why were you in for 22 days? That sounds awful

I've had 2 C-sections in the past, but this is the first time I'll be having general anesthesia, so that's a little nervewracking. You were hospitalized for 22 days? That's a long time! Did you have surgery complications?

Hey guys, I live in Boston and had my sleeve done recently 6/17 at Tufts. I felt it was a little disorganized but I loved my surgeon Dr. Shah
