Has anyone seen Dr. Viglianco yet? I have an appt. on 10/22, finally, wondering what he is like and how long I wait after that for surgery.

I saw him on 8/26 and my surgery is scheduled for 10/17.  There was a minor hold up since I changed from rny to lapband and had to have Lelito change his report. It probably delayed me about a week.
It may depend on your health insurance too but after everything was submitted they approved me less than a week after dr. office turned everything in.
it will happen for you!
You will love Dr. V!  He is so nice and spends a lot of time with you.  He has also done hundreds of surgeries and is an excellent surgeon. Not like any surgeon I have been to.
Good luck!

I had my laporscopic rny with Dr. Viglianco on June 27th.  I have had no problems and he seemed very personable and friendly.  I initially went for my consult the end of April and my surgery was the end of June. (This was my choice as I am a teacher and wanted to wait until the end of the school year)  I was in the hosp. for 2 days and I actually went back to work  and taught summer school 10 days after surgery.  I have done great!!!  Including my 2 week pre-op diet I am down 92 lbs in three months!!!

Good luck!!

Dr. V did my surgery 9/8--he did a great job and I had complications because of how my insides are--he went the extra step to make sure everything went well and was a great doc!
