I'm seeing Dr. Flavia Soto who spoke at the seminar and I really like her that's why I chose her.

I'm going on August 19th. They said it will be two hours.

I will see the Nurse, Dietitian and her but I wonder when they fit in the Psychological Evaluation?

Did any of you have it the same day as your consultation?

Hey and congrats on making this step. I was sleeved on July 21st. My psych eval was scheduled after my initial appointment with the surgeon, dietician and finance person(same day). The nurse gave my the information to the psych they used often, and they made the referral for me after that initial visit. He called me the next day and got me on his schedule. Best wishes!

When I went I had to do the three months supervised diet then after that I was set up with the psych evaluation and the chest x-ray and blood work. Then met with the surgeon and the scheduler and was in for surgery a month later. I think it depends on how your insurance works. Mine had steps I had to take.

Usually they have one they recommend or ask if you have one, and it's pretty quick cause insurances wanna know you got approved before moving forward

Okay that makes sense that you have to schedule that after. Thank you all for the responses!

I'm glad it moves fast. I want all the paperwork done! LOL

I didn't have to have one
