Just wondering how much time people spent in surgery?

average is about 45 minute to 1 hour surgery, I had my gallbladder taken out also and it was close to 2 hours

I've heard 35-60 minutes. Mine was about 40 minutes.

I was a band to sleeve revision with a hernia repair I was on the table a little over 3hrs. let me tell you my back was not happy!

Mine was 45 minutes, but you also get to spend a while in recovery before they wheel you to your room. In my case, I went to Icu instead because of breathing issues.

Thanks for the feedback, how long in recovery for you all?

Surgery was around 45 min for me and recovery room - 2 hours.

Recovery room was about 2 hours, but it really took me an additional 48 hours to get out of Icu recovery and to my room. I had surgery on Monday at 12 pm and was disharged Friday at 11am. I remember really being ready to go home. Just to be fair, my circumstances were not considered to be average. Most folks go home the next day after surgery. Some also stay much longer then my stay if there are seriuous complications. Good luck.

Actual surgery time was 3 hours 20 minutes. No idea why it was so much longer than others on this thread. I had no complications or other things to be done. The doctors told me and my husband before they started that it would take that long and it did. Recovery was another 2 hours.

So I know a dumb question, but is your husband (spouse) allowed in recovery??

For my surgery he was allowed in once I woke up

That's not a dumb question, really. My wife was not allowed in the recovery room. She was a bit surprised after having to wait 3 hours to hear anything...

My boyfriend was allowed in recovery, but only briefly as I remember. It was abt 15 mins

I think about an hour. Went in at midday and woke up very groggily in recovery at about 2.30pm.

My surgery was over two hours long. Not sure about recovery time.

My doctor not only cut the stomach out but stapled it & sewed the stomach to ensure no leaks. So maybe thts why it's longer not sure.

Mine was 2.5 hours.
