The first thing they told me when I passed the program for surgery was to talk to my OB about going on birth control. They said no babies for the first two years after surgery.

Hi, I met with my surgeon on Friday (06-16-17). They booked me for surgery right after the appointment. My surgery is scheduled for July 20th. I'm in Massachusetts.

The bariatric team Dr. approved me for surgery 05/10/17. She said she said she would have the coordinator call me to set up the appointment with the surgeon. I received the call from the coordinator on 05-31-17. I'm now scheduled with the surgeon for 06-16-17. I am supposed to receive a surgery date on that day. They are booking surgeries a month out. I guess some places take longer than others.

My intro to Bariatric Program conference was on 04-14-16. I met with the bariatric team Dr. for initial consultation. Then I had to meet with a psychologist for an initial evaluation. After that I had to follow a 6 week program with behavioral medicine. Then I had to meet one on one with the psychologist that ran the 6 week program. During that time they also had me meet with the nutritionist once a month. Nutrition and behavioral medicine gave the ok for the next step. I had more testing done, and had some issues with vitamin and iron deficiency. I also had h-pylori. After treatment for all that, I was informed I passed the program 2 weeks ago. My consultation with the surgeon is this Friday (06-16-17). On that day they will give me a surgery date. They are booking surgeries about a month out. So, all this has taken me a bit over a year. Most of was a waiting game between test results and appointments.
