I live in Columbia and going through Riverside Surgical. My surgery date is June 4th with Dr. Strickland. I meet with the nutritionist on Wednesday May 6th to find out about my 4 week pre-op diet. (not really excited about that!) Anyone had any dealings with Riverside and an idea of the pre-op diet? Things are about to get real, very fast! Thanks for the feedback!

Greenville, also. Awaiting approval from UHC so I can start my pre-op diet.

Greenville here. I am having mine done by Dr. Hughes at Riverside Surgical, also . No date set yet since I have to wait the six months for insurance, four more to go. The traveling back and forth to Columbia several times a month is the only downside so far. It would be nice if my insurance approved more than one facility in the whole state.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
