Seeing my surgeon on Monday

I am having my first consultation with my surgeon (Dr. Valentine) on Monday (which is Valentine's day, how funny is that?).

I scheduled my visit with the psychologist but it's a whole month away that they could see me!

I am really hoping to have my surgery in the middle of April, because I have a pretty hectic school schedule. I guess we will just see!

Did anybody have that psychological evaluation? What goes on during those appointments?

I had mine yesterday. I went in and talked with the Dr. first. He was very impressed with himself and his knowledge and spent 55 minutes out of an hour talking about how great he was. When I left, I was a little dissappointed because I felt I knew more about him than he did me. Then I had to sit in a room and answer questions about my personality as to if they were very true, somewhat true, mainly true, or false. The Dr. said It's not really a pass or fail thing as long as you are not addicted to drugs or alcohol or they see something outrageously odd in your personality profile.Hope that helps some.
