Congratulations on your surgery date! Thats the day after my 30th birthday... still will be recovering.. no partying this year lol when is your pre op workshop? I go sept 10th.

I looked in to using Dr Pham's office and heard wonderful things about him. Synergy got me in faster and I knew people who had uses them. Good luck!!

I am scheduled for surgery on the 29th with Dr Cavaretta from Synergy. Im from the Olean area... any locals out there with any words of wisdom?? Im so excited/nervous/terrified and am hoping to find a local support system

I am scheded for surgery on the 29th in Buffalo. Start my liver reduction diet on the 19th and have a pre op workshop on the 10th. I havent gotten any protein shakes yet because I see so many different kinds. I have texture issues and am looking for one that isnt too gritty.... good luck everyone!

Hello all... Im new to the forum. I have been researching WLS for about 8 years and finally made the decision to have the Sleeve in February. My surgeon is Dr Cavaretta from Synergy Bariatrics in Buffalo. I am excited, nervous, terrified.... but I know I am making the right decision. I turn 30 a week after my surgery, so I keep joking next year I'll have to have a 30+1 party to Celebrate since I wont be up to celebrating at all this year... I have a few questions... Anyone from the Buffalo/WNY area that wants a surgery buddy? I have major texture issues... can anyone recommend a good pre and post op Protein shake that isnt too gritty? My biggest "fear" for surgery is having a bladder catheter... did anyone have one? I know they want you mobile and walking so Im hoping I wont have one... thanks for any insight!!
