Surgeon Contact

I was approved for my surgery a few weeks ago and my date is June 1st. How much contact have you had with your surgeon before surgery? Did anyone from the office contact you with detailed info about the surgery? Am I just expecting something too much too early?

​My bariatric team was wonderful, but so busy! It seems like I was the one that always had to keep in contact with them. I saw my surgeon three times before, the first initial consult, the pre op visit then a few minutes before the actual surgery. I received the information about the surgery first at the educational seminar, then more detailed information about diet guidelines ect., at the pre op visit. No, I don't think you are expecting too much too early. June 1st isn't very far away, if you haven't heard from and are becoming anxious...definitely give them a call. Good luck to you and welcome!
