New to group out of California, surgery set for 8/22

New to this group and just started my two week pre op diet. Feeling good so far and looking forward to the surgery date. I previously had the lap band from 2009 - 2017 when I had it removed due to the port flipping 3 times on me. You all got this and it will be worth it at the end.

Congrats! I get my sleeve on the 16th. 2 days!!! I wish you well with this one. Where in California? I'm here also. Live in Los Angeles but getting my surgery done in fountain Valley it's a long drive but worth it! I really like my dr. And my surgery coordinator.....The Best ever! She's made me feel so good about doing this. This medical group is great. And the hospital staff I've talked with are too!

Thank you!! I’m in La Mirada and having my surgery in Orange. I had my lapband back in 2009 in Fountain Valley at Orange Coast. I had the band removed due to port flipping 3 times.
I’m doing fairly well with my liquid diet and counting down for the 22nd.
Wish you the best and a speedy recovery after surgery.

Is that at Fountain Valley Regional Medical Center? That's where I'm going. In fountain Valley. Never been there before this. But I really like what I see in my Dr and staff. My insurance group sent me there. I was just happy they'd pay. I've been wanting this for years but didn't think it a possibility. I'm so incredibly thankful! Good luck! :)
