I live in Alabama

I'm having DS surgery in Dallas sometime in December. I'm waiting for insurance approval still but the dr assures me it will be before the new year! Safe travels from Alabama.

@Dknal2..what do you think of Frenzel? I have my consultation with him this week. How quickly after consultation were you able to schedule surgery? Did you have a lot of visits to Plano for pre-op requirements?

I'm not getting sleeved until 1/11/17, but I live in Boerne, TX which is 30 miles west of San Antonio. Where on Tx do you live?

No , since I live in Alabama everything has been telephonically. But it has been a great experience. I find him to be very informative and staff super helpful. I'm excited .

It took one week to get approved and then another 4 days for my date.

How long has this process taken for you to get scheduled?

      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.
