Cat Lady, I did the in-house psych and nutritionist. They were both amazing and so supportive. The out of pocket money I spent on them was well worth it. I had my pre-op testing today. I'm really starting to feel excited that this is actually going to happen! If you're nervous or anxious at all, call Dr. Geiss' office. Everyone there is so supportive. I'm so glad to be working with his team.

kidlehopper, We have the same date! I had my pre-op testing this morning. I'm so excited I almost just went ahead and started my liquid diet early! How are you doing?

Hi! I'm scheduled for surgery on July 15th. I'm so excited! I love on Long Island (Suffolk County), but I work in NYC. I'm looking for a buddy (or two or three or twelve) for support because I know this is going to be a challenging and life-changing experience.

Valencia, I'm a Suffolk girl too! I live in Middle Island. I'm going to Syosset Hospital with Dr. Geiss. If you ever need some local support before or after surgery, let me know! Nicole
