Just wondering if there are any South Florida Sleevers out there. I am in West Davie out near Weston. Looking for a support buddy.

Hi, I live on the border of Broward & Palm Beach County. Having my sleeve procedure June 30 at Holy Cross Hosp. I'm getting a little impatient right now, can't wait!!

Happy13, I work out near Holy Cross in Fort Lauderdale.

Hi Fellow Floridians

I am in Palm Beach County and just starting the journey with Dr Vaughan. I saw him last week and will be seeing the nutritionist on Monday. I have to jump through the 6 months supervised diet. Does this site have friendship requests? Sure could use some friends as I have no family.

Ssflbelle. If you have face book you can send me a friend request to Debbie Hatmaker Grose. I had my surgery with dr Vaughan May 28. I see him for my one month on monday. I have lost 19 lbs according to my scale.

Nice to see so many Floridians !

We should all get together sometime

ssfbelle where in Palm Beach County? I am in Palm Beach Gardens!

I don't know if I count but I'm across the way in Fort Myers. My surgeon is Dr. Thomas Bass and I should get my surgery date any day now.

Dr Bass use to be in South Florida as I went to see him in 2008 for the lapband. My insurance at that time wouldn't pay for the fills so I didn't go through the surgery. He was very nice and his staff was friendly but he was over an hour 1/2 away from my home. This new Dr is only 30 minutes away.

ssfbelle you aren't far from me at all!

My surgeon is Dr shillingford. My surgery is scheduled for 11/5/15. I am also in the palm beach area. I live on lake worth. Anyone getting sleeved by Dr shillingford would love to hear their experience?

Dr. Shillingford is my dr also. My sleeve is scheduled for tomorrow at 10 am!

Good luck Colleen, I pray all goes well. Let's stay in touch. Dr shillingford has a great reputation for being a great surgeon. Everything will be fine.

Colleen I wish the very best for you and your Dr. tomorrow. Don't forget to walk and sip and don't be afraid to take the meds if your in pain. When your able let us know how your doing. Good Luck!!

amsaf and anyone else in south florida

There is another south florida thread in the support group section. In that thread

• swerdygnome is starting a meetup group for south florida sleevers. Here is the link to that thread. http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/345913-any-south-florida-sleevers/page-2
• Her posting is the 3rd from the bottom of this page 2. Let her know if your interested in joining. I know the Doctors usually have a monthly support group but this meetup group could be something extra. I know I need all the support I can get as I only told my room mate and a friend who had the sleeve by the same Dr I am using.

Port st Lucie, FL tentative date is 12/7/15 Dr. Beatty
