Any soon to be Sleevers in KC area?

Just hoping to connect with a buddy in KC area that is pre-op planning sleeve here in near future. I'm with Bariatric Center of KC in Lenexa. Dr Hamilton. Don't have date yet but attending final nutrition class on August 20 then we can file insurance and hope to have surgery early October.

My surgery date is Sept 14th with Dr slayden at St lukes south! I live quite a ways from kc but I'm out there regularly. :)

I was sleeved by Hamilton last December. You're in good hands.

What can you share about your experience? Anything unique about it that I should know? I've only met him one on one in that first consult. He presented at the seminar I attended and I liked him then. Since then it's just been the nutritionist, psych doc, and my case worker (via email only). I won't see Hamilton again until my 2 week pre op appt.

Well he did my EGD too but I didnt see him conscious. Lol

I can't think of anything unique. I would say it's helpful to write down all the questions you have and take list with you. He will answer all your questions, but I feel like you have to ask.
