how long is the Gastric Sleeve surgery ?

[missykrissy79 21]

Mine was 2 hours. I didn't come out of recovery for 6 because as my Dr puts it, "I was enjoying the anesthesia" (I took a long time to wake up).

My surgery lasted approx. 2.5 hours. as told anywhere from 2.5 to 3 . I had allot of scar tissue that was removed otherwise it would of been done somewhat sooner. ​

I was just sleeved in Mexico by dr. Carlos Altamamirano.....surgery took a 1 1/2 hours by then I was already in my room with the Doc right next to me making sure everything was good.....he also does a leak test while in surgery.....

My surgery was done in little over an hour but my recovery was quite some time. Apparently I didn't take well to the anesthesia and when I woke up I was violent and was trying to open my incisions. And I am the sweetest person. Do I remember any of it....nope.

My surgeon told me that mine will be 18 to 45 minutes. Mainly saying that it would be closer to the 18 minutes but longer depending on scar tissue from my previous gallbladder removal.

About 3 hours door to door...from the time they wheel to the OR to the time they take you to your room. Actual operation about 45 mins.
