So excited on yesterday I had my first consultation with the Dr. So how long does it usually take before surgery date. I have to meet with nutrition for 3 months

My doc said 6 months start to finish. However my potential date insurance willing is 5 months from start. I think it’s mostly insurance requirements

Awesome, Thanks can't wait to start

My doctor is so busy, it took 6 months to get a date and then the date was 3 months away. I have to say though, it was worth the wait! I am only 10 days out, and I am doing great. No pain that a couple of Tylenol couldn't handle, no nausea, and I am down 15 pounds since surgery.

I had my first appointment with the surgeon on January 8th and I will be having surgery March 11.

That was very fast. My doctor has sent out my referrals so I'm hoping to start getting my appointments done soon

Good luck!!

For me, it was August of last year until February 21. I had some hang-ups with the process, simply because my blood sugar was so uncontrolled, but I was still able to get the surgery quicker than they expected. Then again, my insurance (Cigna) only required 3 months of medically assisted weight loss.

I wish you the best of luck, honey! You got this! ❤️
