Call St. V and they can tel you when they are scheduled and they will schedule you in for one and send you a packet of info to fill out and bring with you.  If you have a particular surgeon you are interested in consulting with you can schedule on a day when they will be speaking and have your initial consult after the seminar is over.  Atlest that is how it worked for me a year and a half ago. I called and went on a day I already had off work.  I hadn't decided on a surgeon so just saw who was there that day.  It worked out well.  I had Dr. Evanson and I highly recommend him.  Most everyone on here though will tell you their surgeon at St. V is the best.  Good luck!

That still how it happens Jan...call up St. V's ask for a consultation with whichever doc you choose and then after the group consult you can visit one on one with your surgeon. Thats how it was anyway in June with me.

I would suggest going to Dr. Inman's seminar just because she performs all three major surgeries and can give you info on all three.  She gives an excellent presentation and will give you the pros and cons of all.  You can then schedule your consultation with whichever surgeon you prefer, but at least you were told about all options available to you. Good luck in your WLS journey!
