Stacey99 5 Posted November 26, 2016 @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? Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
