Hi, I am just starting the whole process and will be attending an informational seminar on June 8 in Oakland, CA at AltaBates Summit Medical Facility. I am excited yet scared. Hoping to get the sleeve. Is anyone from my area? I would love to hear from you. I'm hoping that my surgeon will be Dr. Ajay Upadhyay. I hear is really good. Has anyone heard of him or has he performed anyone's surgeries?
