Cherylvanden

I am an administrative assistant. Lots of sitting at a computer, but some walking. I took off 2 weeks and then worked about 1/2 time for the next week. Then it was full steam ahead. I had laproscopic surgery and a nearly perfect recovery or I don't know if I could have come back that fast.

I had talked to my doctor and asked for a referral to the Victoria clinic, she sent it in and I was in for the bariatric program there. So far I have made 3 trips over and will make 2 more, maybe 1-2 more after surgery. You can get blood work done here and follow up appointments with the internist, she has a Vancouver office as well. If you don't mind the ferry, try a referral to Victoria.

Hello there,
I have not gone through the Richmond program but I have heard that it can take anywhere from 2-5 years. I went through the Victoria program and that has taken a considerably shorter time. It has taken me 10 months to get a surgery date.

Yes frustrating but they are top in their field. Sigh..found a place near me though that teaches heath and nutrition.. Looking to see if msp will cover. I want to be so overly prepared for this new journey. Sent from my D2206 using the BariatricPal App
