New to this site

Hello everyone, I am LizzyM and new to this site. I am an old timer on the OH boards, but still pre-op. My surgery of choice,of course is the vsg with Dr. Aceves. I have read so many positive things about him on both boards which helps me in knowing I have chosen a great surgeon. My surgery is Sept. 30, any one else near or on that date? I will be coming from Ohio to Mexicali. I am very excited! Hope to make many new friends here.

Liz

Welcome Lizzy - we are so happy you are here. You have made an excellent choice in choosing Dr. Aceves. IMO he is absolutely wonderful. You might go to the september sleevers and see who else is scheduled with Dr. Aceves at or around the same time as you.

Hi Liz, welcome!! Like Vegas said, I agree that Dr. Aceves is wonderful. You will absolutely love him and his staff.

Admittedly, I am the oddity here having had my surgery done in Flint, MI. But welcome anyway! Good group, lots of knowledge, and the sleeve has been very, very good to me. Best of luck.

There are an awful lot of us who had surgery by Dr. Aceves. I plan to go back there in Oct. and have all my post op lab work done and an Upper GI.

Welcome to our board.

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcomes! It'll take me a while to figure out how to navigate the site for sure. My best to all of you!

Hey, I know you!

Hi Lizzy

I will be having my surgery the day after you. Flying out of Louisville, Ky. on Sept 30th and surgery on Oct. 1st.

My hubby will be coming with me. Are you going alone?

I can't wait to meet you.

Maybe we can talk in the chat room.

Hey Lizzy welcome :thumbup:I'm fairly new here too. My surgery is Monday in Green bay Wisconsin. I found this group so helpful to me already! You will too, I am still struggling to navigate this site, so don't feel bad!:confused1:

OMgosh, MOnday? Best of luck to you! Let us know how things are, u will be in my prayers!

I think this board is very easy to navigate. It's all divided up into whatever section you are interested in.

If you click on User Cp it will bring you back to whatever threads you have posted in.

I find the other board really hard to find my threads that I am interested in reading.
