Every bariatric surgery progam is a little different. But bring your questions. Better to have them. If they don't take questions, which would surprise me, ask if you can send them via email.

At my seminar, the surgeon, psych, nd nut all spoke and then asked if we had questions. I brot 29 questions and added more as I listened, they lol'd at me but I was prepared, nd everyone benefited from my questions:) so yeah, bring them:)) gl

The seminar I went to was incredibly boring and I had to go to 2 of the same exact seminars. It was an hour long slide show of info I had already researched myself. Also my husband was required as my support person to go with me. Luckily he wasn't to upset to miss work...I didn't have to bring anything, just signed in. I can't complain to much because I have my surgery date July 18th! So all the boring stuff was worth it

The seminar at my center just had a speaker and one of the two surgeons talk about the surgeries. It was pretty impersonal but if you had questions about the surgeries they would be asked. They did not talk about anyone's insurance though.

Everywhere is a bit different. They'll probably explain the benefits & risks of surgery, the procedure itself & how you get started on the path. They may have some past patients talk a little bit about their experience. I'd be surprised if they didn't allow for some questions, but for the more personal/specific ones (insurance being one) they'll probably do that more in depth during your consultation.
