Hello all new here to the site and the sleeve. I was at the doc for a yearly check up and he brought up wls to me and I immediately said no way but when I got home I started reading and reading, I even read the big book on the gastric sleeve. Now I am going back to the doc this month for my test results and to ask for a referral to see a bariatric doctor. What are some questions you recommend asking the bariatric doctor on the first visit?

Welcome! May I suggest using the search feature, found in the upper right-hand corner? Just type in a subject you're interested in, and you will find all kinds of posts! It's good you have a book to refer to, bring it with you the appointment. Ask about pre-op diets, post-op diets, risks, complications, whether he/she thinks you're mentally prepared (you probably will have to pass a psychological evaluation), and anything else you have the slightest curiosity about. Good luck to you on your journey!
