Ohio Sleeve patients?

I had mine done 3/19/13 and at Miami Valley Hospital. Any fellow Ohioans want to be VSG buddies?!

    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.
