My consultation is today!

Yay! It's finally here! I'm so excited for this appointment! I already got clearance from the cardiologist and I think the psychiatrist since I didn't hear back from her! All I have to do now is as far as drs go is meet with the pulmonologist which is tomorrow and then of course my appointment today. Then, there is a diet/excercise workshop I have to go to which I will find out more today. I'm hoping to get that done soon so we can schedule the surgery. I am so ready!

Can anyone share with me what I should expect at the appointment today? I'm excited but also a little nervous! Thanks!

Is ti your surgical consult? It will be easy! The doctor will talk about the actual surgical process you are interested in , if he or she thinks that is the best one for you, they will review your meds and other medical conditions. In my case the surgeon discussed the need for the egd test and the procedure for that. We did schedule the surgery that day!

Well I'm not sure really!! This is my first consult with the dr/surgeon. Will I most likely have another consult with him?

I was not sure if your consult was with the surgeon or with a weight management doctor at my center it is two different things sorry if I confused you! I had two appts with the surgeon before my surgery.
