MY questions how long as far as days are weeks do you here from your Dr.s office to start getting appointments set up to have your surgery done?  I mean do you call to set it up or do you wait to here from the office?  DR.Duncans  staff will be doing my surgery.

I have heard that it is only a few weeks after you have been approved. I want to wish you the best on your journey. Hug's

As you know I recently used their office.  Wait only a few days after approval and then call to see if you can hurry them along with setting up your appointments.  They were ready to do my surgery (once I hurried them along) withing 2 weeks but I had some previos appts for I needed it to be closer to 3 weeks.  You do need to keep on them  Good luck.

Hi Tammie, The pre op is the bowel prep that you will have to do before surgery.  It is two days of clear liquids with a bowel cleanser.  Yuck, but so worth it.
