My name is lacey and I'm having surgery June 30th at Blue valley surgical hospital... Dr. Drahota is performing my sleeve. Just trying to see if I have some people close or maybe even have the same doctor. I'm so ready to start this journey

I'm in KC. I went to the Bariatric Center of Excellence, and Dr Hoehn in Lenexa Kansas.

When I first looked into it I was gonna go to Dr hamilton out of Shawne mission but moved to missouri and my insurance only covered where im going now

Oh, I know Dr Hamilton, too. Very nice man! And from what my friends have told me, an excellent surgeon. Good luck to you on the 30th! Give a shout out when you are coherent and up and about! See you on the losers bench!

I just had my preop appt with Dr Drahota, am waiting for the call from anesthesia to get a surgery date. Drahota seems very nice.

I had Hamilton last December. Good luck!

Dr. Hamilton was my surgeon as well. So far I have lost 93 pounds since my first weigh-in. On July 16 it will be 6 months.

I'm having my sleeve by Dr Hamilton at KC Bariatric most likely in early October. Don't have date yet. Have final class on August 20 then we can finally file w insurance.

That's wonderful. I hope my determination to succeed never fades! Congrats.

I know this post is a little older but I live in belton and was sleeved November 16th of this year. How is everyone's progress going?!

I was sleeved on June 15, I am down 76 pounds!! Have not really had any problems since coming home from my very rough hospital stay. Dr. Price was my dr at St. Luke's on the plaza. I really like the office and staff, they really get you ready for the surgery and after.

I'm in KC. Sleeved 4/23/15. Down almost 80 pounds (20 pounds away from 100!) Doing great!

Nice to meet up guys! I was sleeved by Dr slayden in the st lukes group. And i agree......they really do prepare us well! I'm in that dreaded three weeks stall right now kinda frustrating
