Hi Cathy!! I'm originally from Conyers and waiting on insurance approval so Dr. Macik can do my sleeve in October. He's doing my husband's on 9/18. Inbox me if you're looking for someone to talk to about this whole crazy process!

I just got cleared from the NUT, and hopefully will be cleared from the Psychiatrist today and approved by Friday through the endocronologist. The NUT told me to call her Friday and see if he signed off, and then I can make the appointment with Macik. I did go to the Orientation in August and was thinking of going to the support group in September at Northside. Macik said as soon as I get an appt with him, I can get scheduled in about 30 days, I really want an October date. Where do you live now, still in the Atlanta area??? Will be nice to have someone with the same surgeon to talk to!

Hey Cathy! I just got sleeved by Dr Macik in June, so feel free to contact me, as well. Good luck! :)

Awesome! Will do!

Dr. Macik is the best! I love him so much and thank the Lord for him everyday! I have a beautiful new life thanks to his wonderful work! If you ever have any questions, just let me know.

I saw that one of you is from Conyers, GA. That was my home town also. I was born and raised there until 14. I went to Rockdale, well that was MANY years ago.
