I switched to Dr Neff in cherry hill for my bypass. Seminar Monday ...its all I can think about.

How are you feeling? My seminar is Monday I feel like it will never get here! I'm not worried about liquid diets...whatever it takes! I just want to get started and know what I have to do (specialists, 6 mo diets etc)

My seminar with Dr Neff is this Monday. I can't wait to get started!

Oh...I'm in south Jersey...guess the search begins I suppose.

Where is that one located? ?

Do you have to do six months supervised diet? I wish you a speedy process!

Did you need a weight history?

Anxiously waiting for Monday for the surgeon's seminar. Can't do anything till I go to that. Anxious to what requirements I'll have. Worried I don't have weight history documentation...bmi isn't an issue. Anxious all around...feel like Monday will never get here...,

I'm still following....seminar is Monday...the journey begins!

Blackwood here

Anyone???

More than anything...I want to hear kids laugh or people chuckling and not wonder if I'm the subject of their amusement. .....and shopping .....and go to the beach ......find a man????(widowed 12 yrs) :0)

Being alone is my plan...we'll see if they cooperate

Mrs Bailey...I have no problem with the BMI as I'm over 60. Do you mind me asking what surgeon you used? Also what requirements you needed for approval? Waiting (impatiently) for my July 7 seminar to get things started!

Mine is only once a month and I missed it when I registered by TWO days!

Just starting too. My seminar is July 7! I am so anxious to get things started!

Good luck ArielleStarr! I hope its quick! I'm here over the top excited cause my journey starts tonight with my seminar! Long way to go but its starting!!

I can't wait to actually have a plan of action. I switched surgeons and have my seminar in 2 days. I want my appt and to know what I have to get done! I want to get started!!

I haven't even seen the surgeon yet but I've started making changes. Dropped the iced coffee with caramel...next the morning coffee....

I'm right there with you not knowing....like the requirements. Etc...

Not even close....my seminar is next wednesday and hopefully get an appointment soon after. Not sure how long the wait time is.

I recently (yesterday) switched to Dr. Neff. I've heard nothing but good things

I'm at the very beginning of my journey. I called my insurance company for details this morning before I go to my initial consult on the 16th. First off they allow both surgeries I'm considering so that's good. Then the girl said 12 months preop dieting. 12 months?? Next she said I can only choose from a short list of surgeons in the state. Of course the surgeon I'd picked and had an appointment for is not on the list. I really felt she was just reading as she goes along...not really knowing..I have Horizon NJHealth. Is anyone familiar with this?

Dr Balsama is also with Kennedy Bariatric. Has anyone had experience with him?

Thank you so much that was so helpful!
