  1. I live Dudley Ma. having my surgery at UMass memorial - any one else have it done there?
  2. How long did it take from first appt to surgery date? My insurance is easy. I just need to have a BMI of 35+ and one co-morbility and that's exactly what I have... so what should take so long? Any guesses on when I would have surgery (month) I have my first appt with surgeon on July 22. already have doctors letter, blood work done and sleep study records. Thanks for any thoughts and opinions
