Any Kaiser Sleevers In Northern Virginia?

Hi, I am going through the process to be sleeved through Kaiser here in Northern Virginia. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that can tell me about the doctors that Kaiser uses. And here are some questions I have:

Do they turn you away if you don't lose the required amount of weight and make you wait til you do?

Do they require a liquid diet prior to surgery?

How long does it take to get a surgery date after finishing the last visit?

How flexible are they with "speeding" up the process? Currently, I would finish my last session with the NUT in Jan. I already have 2 weeks vacation scheduled for Dec which would give me plenty of time to recover before going back to work.

Thanks!

Will you be having it at Virginia Hospital Center? If so, you will be so happy there! Terrific care!

Sleeved 12/17/12 and enjoying the adventure!
