This was one the reasons I choose to go to his seminar first...

The past week has shown me how glad I am that I came to Baltimore as two close friends jump through hoops and confusion to get surgery here in York...  One has to wait until September to see the pulmonologist to get clearance...  after making the original appt in May and being given a July appt - the docotor is now going on vacation - and the only center here in York makes everyone see "their" doctors!!

The other person I know seeing this particular surgeon got her denial yesterday - saying her six month diet has to be completed within 18 months of surgery - she has been trying to get through the hoops with the surgeon's office for over 2 years now - he requires the diet be done at their weight loss clinic!! 

We also met a lady last night at Chili's through our waitress (the entire staff there know I had surgery) who is 8 months out - her "open" scars are HUGE!!!  Each one is about 2 inches long, and they are in the same placement as my six, but she has an extra one right above her belly button?  She also had RNY and no gall bladder removed, first surgery, etc.  Another reason to be glad of my choices!

Ugh!  So glad I picked Dr. A once again!

There've been times where Dr. Singh ran late too - I'd have an appointment at 3:30 but wouldn't see him until 4:30 or 5'sh.  I understand that he does the surgeries in the morning - so I don't fret.  I just make sure that my Nintendo DS is charged up so that I can pass the time playing brain games.    My favorite is the Big Brain Academy and Brain Challenge.  If you do not have a game boy or other portable game stuff - a new book is always good to bring along.

You are doing awesome with your weight loss!  I'm proud of ya!!!!!!

Angie, Cograts on the weight loss and sorry about your delay. I wish docs would realize that our time is very important too..
