For surgery, apparently TWH maintains a cancellation list. So if they have someone cancel surgery, they will call people on their cancellation list to look to fill the spot.

Some people have ended up skipping Opti, but that's rare. Most times ppl have enough notice to still do their Opti course. It's all at the surgeon's discretion.

Hey Oneatatime,

I've been a long time lurker myself and decided to take the plunge today when I saw your post.

I, too, have my "pre surgery" appt. With Dr. Urbac for August 11th. I had the same question as well and I am super relieved to hear all of the positive comments about all of the surgeons.

Like everyone has said, it's not necessarily the same surgeon. However, I can tell you that Dr. Urbach performed my surgery and he was awesome! My family doctor even said that whoever cut my incisions had a "very blessed and skilled hand". So in the event that Dr Urbach is your surgeon, you are in excellent hands!

Crazy how fast things are moving for you! I have called for cancellations but never had the luck you have had!

Hey girl! I'm sorry to hear things are not moving as quickly for you as you want. I'm happy to chat about what I've done, and maybe we can figure out if there's anything different between our approaches. If I can help you meet your goal, please let me know. PM me, and we can go from there, if you want. *hugs*
