ButterflySeoul 98 Posted May 21, 2016 My doctor said about 1-1.5 hours... maybe your doctor is including prep and recovery room time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
165B445 188 Posted May 24, 2016 1 hour for surgery Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G530AZ using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xoperiwinkle 0 Posted June 10, 2016 About an hour...I don't really remember anything from that night though. I just remember them telling me the surgery should only take about an hour - 90 minutes and then waking up hours later with them trying to get me to drink.
