how long



Recommended Posts

So i officially got every appointment made and everything including psych evaluation and pcp clearance will be done by 3/12. I can't even explain how happy I am the only thing I have after that is insurance clearance and my surgical evaluation at the hospital. I was wondering I mean I know everyone's experience is different but how long after the appt's are done till surgery date? My insurance from what everyone tell me at my center and the doc's office is not usually a problem about getting approval. So I guess it really comes down to hospital availability and since my hospital that I chose as an entire floor dedicated to bariatric surgery it's should be that long I would think. Anyway I'm rammbeling I asked the woman in charge of chrias (the hospitals bariatric surgery center) how long she thought and she said probubly next month but i guess I'm wondering did she mean march next month or april next month? anyway if anyone could please share there story i'm just so happy that this is finally coming true I just wish I knew an exact date NOW!

Hello and Congrats on completing the process this far! I started the process in December 2007 and will meet with the physician on Thursday, 2/28. I will be getting a date for surgery on this Thursday. I am in Boston so the process took two months to complete and I love the staff at BI Hospital. I was told I should be banned early next month. Overall, I have enjoyed the process and look forward to see all the weight (150 pounds) drop from me!
