Dietician/Social Worker?
So what happens after the dietician & social worker app? I'm hoping I'm getting closer to meeting the surgeon.
Any info will be appreciated :)

So the dietician and social worker app went good, they are just waiting to get my second sleep study results in then they will book me for a class then I get to talk to a surgeon! They told me I could have surgery between May-July.. This seems so fast but I'll take it:)
Dietician just asked questions about my history, my life and my relationship with food.
Social Worker was amazing- basically same questions and doing a check to make sure I'm not bat **** crazy ?
I did my second sleep study sans mask and of course I need the machine now- but my goal is to lose the weight so this will be short term!!!
hope this helps you, message me anytime if you want to talk and good luck

I just had my sw/dietician appt on Tuesday. I have a gastroscopy on Feb 2, sleep test on Feb 23. I was told that you now just wait for all the results to come in and then they will call me to make further appts.

Not everyone needs a scope, I never had one. It depends on your symptoms and medical issues. I don't know (since I didn't need one), but I think the nurse will flag you for additional medical tests you need. I didn't need anything "extra", but perhaps others that have can tell you who ordered them.
My my opinion is that if you are going to meet the surgeon and no one has mentioned anything, you should be good. For most of us, meeting the surgeon is the last step before your pre-admin visit.
