April Sleever Here in VA!

[drey 20]

Hello everyone,

I currently 6 weeks away from having my sleeve done and am so looking foward to it. Just checking to see if there are any of VA sleevers around having surgery soon. I am with Dr. Fritzer at VA Bariatric Surgery Center out in Reston.

I love this website and have so much useful information thus far.

I work at the hospital at VCU. So the surgery is better covered with my insurance.

St. Mary's has a good bariatric program. A couple of friends were patients there. They are all happy. I just wish the process was moving faster. I don't need a sleep study to qualify but I'm going to have one because I need it. I also need a endoscopy. Just waiting for scheduling. I was hoping to get some of it done while I was waiting for the psych appt in April.
