One of the pre op appointments in St. Elizabeths is with Dr. Vandor...how is this appointment and for what? Thanks!

I am not sure who is Dr Vandor however they have lots of doctors on staff. I chose Dr. Mc cause I like him, good bedside manners, way more sleeve experience . They do give you a choice to pick what doctor would you like?

Hi! My surgeon is Dr. Mc too! They put my first appointment with him and I felt so good he is a wonderful dr. I think Dr. Vandor is an internist dr., its one of my preop appointment there, did you see any other doc there in your preop appointments? Maybe is a physical exam?

Why were you in for 22 days? That sounds awful

I've had 2 C-sections in the past, but this is the first time I'll be having general anesthesia, so that's a little nervewracking. You were hospitalized for 22 days? That's a long time! Did you have surgery complications?

I ended up with the very 1st sleeve leak in Wareham. 4 surgeries and 2 months later I went through hell but def no regrets here and Kruger is the absolute Best. Are you ladies on any if the Facebook sleeve groups?

I'm in one FB group called "Drama Free WLS Buddies". I'm so sorry to hear of your leak--how long ago was your surgery?
