That’s wonderful! I had my surgery at CRMC and since I’ve worked w/ my surgeon in the O.R., he gave me incite on the surgery. So he referred me for the surgery. I also have share of cost Medicaid w/ Medicare. But nevertheless, depending on your insurance they’ll let you know how many nutrition classes you’re required to take prior to surgery. I also had to get surgical clearances from my pulmonologist, PCP, and get a psych evaluation. I wish you the best!

I had my surgery on September 20th. My surgeon is Dr. Wright also. He’s amazing and an excellent doctor. You’re in good hands. He really cares for his patients. I’m excited for you!

I can't wait. I have heard so many good things about him. Can I ask how much weight have you lost?

You’ll enjoy him. I’ve worked w/ him in the O.R. and he really helped me tremendously. And ultimately was one of my main reasons for choosing him. So far I’ve lost 30lbs. My weight loss was slow at first because I wasn’t hungry and I was so focused on my Fluid and Protein intake, but failed to get the calories needed. So I ended up meeting w/ my bariatric counselor and she helped me. Now my weight loss is back on the right track.
