Ohio Sleeve patients?

[kls3214 6]

I'm having mine at Miami Valley Hosp in Dayton on Dec 18 with Dr Siddiqui. What takes all day for the pre op testing? I'd like to go to the support meeting in Dec but it said it was the Christmas party.

Hello everyone are you guys still keeping this chat going. I am looked in Cinti and looking into getting sleeved I was thinking of Dr Curry I have an apt next month. Anyone have suggestions on a doctor you can pm if you want. I am currently 280 so I have clothes size 22 that I can't wait to give away...

I used to work on 7T at MCW which is my main reason for not wanting to go there.

Thankfully I survived. I actually thought the staff was great.

They are good it's more of a personal thing. I just don't want to be there for my surgery, with my old co-workers. So glad everything went well!!!!

Hello everyone! I'm going through OSU as well. I've already done the psych eval, EGD, EKG, and working through the pre/post op courses now.

Yeah, Im waiting to hear on the exact date. My pre op final appt is in the process of being scheduled. I get my surgery date then. Hoping it is only a small waiting period, I figured like 4-5 weeks, we'll see though. I am going thru Dr. Noria. I really liked her. I met her in my first class to learn about the process and she made a great impression. Who are you using?

I'll have Dr. Noria. She's who did my EGD. I believe my next step after these courses are ins approval, then meet w surgeon to get date. I'm curious how far out they are now as well. It seems like the longest part of this process has been waiting for appointments.
