Had mine last month it took less than 7 minutes. To my surprise my throat was not sore afterwards. Its a piece of cake

I had mine done last week and it was the best sleep ever. Just took 5min and it was all done. Had a little sore throat but went away fast.

Good Luck :)

I had mine last Tuesday. Nothing to it! A little bit of a scratchy throat that quickly went away! Good luck!

It was a breeze! I was worried for nothing. Thanks for your support.

How long we're you there? Zdid it take all day? A couple of hours? I know the 6 ladies that was at the intake appointment will also be there to get theirs and my husband has an appointment later in the afternoon.

I was only at the surgical center for 2 hours. The EGD took to minutes, I had a little site throat after but it was gone within 12 hours. It was not bad at all

the procedure itself took about 10 minutes. I was in and out in about 2hours.

Thanks! I was worried my husband would have to take a day off and he's already being sequestered one day this week.

I had one on my birthday!!! It made me so confident about the surgery since I had to be put to sleep and I was nervous about that part. It was a piece of cake. The sleep felt so refreshing. Mine took about 20 minutes from start to finish.
