I just had my appointment with Dr. Olsen at Centennial Med. Center in Nashville and my surgery is scheduled for July 18. I could of scheduled it sooner but due to my work schedule this is the soonest I could do.

I'm so excited. I've wanted this for years!

I just got my insurance approval today and have my first appointment with Dr. Olsen on July 19th. How long was it from your first Dr appointment until your surgery date?

Good luck with your surgery!

I could have scheduled it the following week but only due to my work schedule did I have to push it back until the 18th.

His scheduler will work with you - everyone in his office is great.

Dr. Olsen is a straight shooter, tells you how it is. Good luck w/ your appointment.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
