March 27...just found out today! I'm really excited and nervous! It's been such a long 2-year process. To finally have a set date seems surreal.

It's nice to meet everyone! [emoji4]

Oh no, why? Remember that if you find another doctor the process, in general, maybe delayed due to surgeon qualifications, and your insurance thinking it's through one doctor.

But I'm not sure.

from my consultation to my surgery date will be almost 11 months to the day.

I had my initial consultation on April 5th of last year I believe, and my surgery date is on the first of March.

However, there was a ton of hoops I had to jump through due to having a crappy case worker, and having to switch in the middle of my 6 month supervised diet. I was done with everything is November technically, submitted everything right after the new year (the 13th of Jan.) Got approved on the 28th, and had a date by the 30th.
