Hey I'm a patient of Dr. Choi at Montefiore. You have to call and be on top of them it seems like some of you had a shorter wait time than I did I had to wait since January 25 till last week 2/27 for my appointment to sign consent and I had called and spoken to them in between email did work best. They will give you your surgery date the day you go to sign consent as well as your pre-op appointment and one last nutrition class ...I'm scheduled for 4/24/17...they are still scheduling for this month if you are able to go in. Good luck!

Hopefully I can get a surgery date in the coming week. I will finish my cpap compliance on friday. They literally told me to use it for a week to generate a report at the last minute. I have Dr. Moran. It prob took you a longer time to get an appt bc your doc is the most popular lol

They do suck. It took me a year to get everything. Because they lost my stool test and I had to do stuff over. But keep on them

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
