Hello Sleevers, I finished my Kaiser Options program last week (12/19/11). Today (12/28), I received a call from Fountain Valley Hospital. They said that they got the referral and have everything ready to go, that I must register online, which I did and wait for a call to schedule for a class with them. I am so excited! I hope they call me to schedule really soon. I drove over to visit the hospital today, just to see and get a feeling about the place. Of course, its nothing like a kaiser facility. I expected a huge multi level hospital, as I am use to with Kaiser, but I am yet to meet with the surgeon and see how that goes. can any of you share your experience if you have been sleeved by Fountain Valley Hospital.

Congrats on getting a date and your graduation! Yeah, FV hospital is small but it is where your surgeon is comfortable. I am not aware of anyone who has had a sleeve done there. You might want to ask your surgeons office to see who else they have done at FV to relieve any concerns.

Please let us know your date. Again, congrats!
