bellepink77 44 Posted June 27, 2012 My surgeon asked me what surgery I wanted and why. Talked about medical history. Explained the procedure and gave me a folder of all the things I needed to do pre and post op. Lasted 15min at most. I didn't have any questions because I've been researching this extensively.

amanda11 50 Posted June 27, 2012 My consult was over 3 hrs. They took us in as a group showed us videos about each individual surgery and talked to us about each one we also talk to the dietician and to the the individually to pick which WLS is best for you! They were very good in making us understand what's going on. And helping u choose the best route of WLS to give u best results and so on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dstollery 290 Posted June 27, 2012 Mine was pretty extensive. I met my surgeons whole staff and each spoke with me about my concerns and questions. I had allot of medical questions an wound up talking my surgeon for 45 min! His head nurse was very helpfull. If I may give a little advice, be honest. Ask whatever you need. Write a list if it helps, if you wonder about libido after ask about it! You should leave that office firm in your decision and excited. If you leave scared and intimidated you didn't ask the questions. Good luck and we are here for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
