jadeedie 7 Posted December 16, 2016 Hi everyone. Glad did found the UK page. Anyone here been sleeved in the homerton in London. I'm waiting on my blood tests and other bits from my doctor before she will refer me to there. I'm hoping it's not a overly long road as I just want to love my life how I want. I'm sick and tired of being this way now. Fingers crossed.

Boofy71 11 Posted December 16, 2016 Hi - I just had surgery in Gloucester - self funding as I live in Wales & it takes forever to be referred - been fighting with GP Local MP Health Minister etc. finally gave in & went private - I can see Homerton is NHS - good luck to you - far easier to have bariatric surgery in England - fingers crossed you get approved x Sent from my SM-G925F using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Kate_ 2,224 Posted December 21, 2016 @@jadeedie Welcome to the UK boards. Best advice I could pass on is to really research before having the op. What to do pre op, what happens during the op and how to cope after, especially around food. Knowledge is power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evie82 0 Posted January 2, 2017 Jadeedie amazing your getting it done at the homerton (that's my second local hospital). I know UCH and Queens Romford also do it as well if you don't get much joy with the Homerton Best of luck Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
