I am still pre op but would love to speak with and/or meet people nearby. I live in Encino.

It really seemed to depend on peoples' availability and scheduling. I told him I'd take the first opening he had. He had one opening on that day, so I may also have gotten lucky with a cancelation.

Point is, you never know.

I gotcha, I was just playing around. My surgery date isn't until May 22 and I'm DYING of impatience.

I can't even imagine waiting that long! I'd be climbing out of my skin!

I'm just starting the consult process, I'm in Santa Clarita and am seeing a doctor at Cedars.

I'm in Santa Monica.

I'm in Santa Monica and would be happy to chat and / or meet if you'd like. Just send me a message. I had the VSG in Mexico, so I won't be able to give any insight on local surgeons, though.

I'm in Santa Clarita too! Would love to stay in touch.

I'll be having my VSG on June 13 at kaiser South Bay with Dr. Mun. I'm so excited and nervous as well!

Congratulations! I hope you'll have an appointment soon. Kaiser took fantastic care of me for my surgery and since.

Go, South Bay sleevies! They'll take great care of you and you'll wake up in a seriously comfortable hospital bed, no joke.

How long was it from finishing Options to your surgery date?
