I was approved on 12/18 and got the call to schedule the same day. I'm scheduled for 2/6 so it seems like they're booking surgeries about 4-6 weeks out. Hope you're able to schedule soon! They're waiting on payment from your insurance?

So my pre-op appointment at Sisters is tomorrow. What kind of tests do they do? I have no idea what to expect and am getting a little nervous.

I have surgery the same day as you! Keep in touch (:

Yep! He seems fantastic, although a girl I know did RNY with him about 7 or 8 months ago and said he doesn't do many sleeves since they're not his speciality. I want to just attribute that to the RNY vs. Sleeve gang war, lol, but she's making me a little nervous.

Thanks for the info seeless! So you're about 6 months out now, right? What does your daily menu look like these days?

How long before your surgery was your sisters appt? I usually plan things way in advance so it's driving me crazy that the paper says sisters will call me to schedule it lol. Just trying to figure out when ill get that call

Atleast it only got pushed back a month or so and you got a promotion to boot (: are all your requirements done since you were ready for the 2nd? I go for my pre-op class next week.

Aw what happened Bekka? Why did your surgery get postponed?

hey jeff! i'm being sleeved the same day as you! i'm sure we'll see more feb sleevers as feb gets closer.

Happy New Year, buffalonians! Pammie-- have you gotten a date yet?? I received insurance approval the day Caruana's office submitted for it! I was approved on 12/18 and scheduled for their first available opening which was on 2/6, to give you an idea of the time frame. I start my pre-op liquid diet the day after my birthday so the date works perfectly for me haha. I have the pre-op exercise class (ughhh) on 1/22 (although I think I'm going to switch to the 1/15 class due to my work schedule), then I have to have a medical clearance appt with my primary, then sisters hospital will schedule me for their pre-op testing. So many appointments! Glad Synergy is so thorough though.

i'm in buffalo too! will be sleeved by dr caruana on feb 6 2013 (:
