Sleeved at UVA

Has anyone gotten sleeved or will be getting sleeved at UVA? I am currently in the 6 months of meeting with a nutritionist but was wondering what pre-op was like with UVA

    I was sleeved 8/19 by Dr. Schirmer! I feel like the experience was different than many people on here (no true psych eval, no pre-diet, pre-weight loss; just one appt before the surgery to go over risks, meet with a nutritionist, and sign papers) but overall I've enjoyed the experience post-op. I will say I wish there was more aftercare. There's a 1 month and 3-month check-in but no long term followup plan like those who go to a non-hospital affiliated clinic

    Typing on my phone but if there's more you want to know in detail I can explain further!

    Did you also have to wait 6 months before you were sleeved? What was your recovery time before you could return to work?
