RVH timeline

hi everyone:

I'm just looking for an approx time line for the surgeries at RVH. Also, to see what other steps or people I have to meet before I get operated. I have a lap-band that is acting out and I'm desperate!

I went to a group meeting on May 16th and I got a call yesterday for my one on one with Dr Court on July 19th.

Any help from people who are currently waiting for an operation at RVh or have been operated ...or just are more informed than me :) would be appreciated.

thanks!!!

Hi
I m so interested at the same info as the wait time seems to be forever. I went to the information session I think in the beginning of February, met with Dr D. Sometime the end of April and I m still waiting for the famous call. I m getting discouraged and very desperate

Good luck to all of us waiting I guess

Hi for me it was:

 

sent my referral on May 7, 2012

went to the info session on Dec. 6, 2012

Met with Dr. Court for my consult on January 11, 2012

Had the duodenal switch with Dr. Court on May 6, 2013

so basically it took 1 year to the day since I first submitted my referral.

 

Good Luck!

I meant January 11, 2013 (for the consult)

Hi
That a not bad at all, I sent my referral July 2012, they told me the surgery might take place sometimes during the month of September due to summer. Besides that how is the weight loss going with you?

thanks so much for the info , it really helps to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

About 1 year to 1 1/2 total.... I had my group consulation December 2012, and had my surgery March 26, 2013

Hi there,

Just to help you estimate the timeline... I just received THE call yesterday!!

I made my first call in June 2012. Had my group meeting at the end of February and met Dr Court at the end of April. My surgery date will be July 15 2013.

Good luck to you!

 

CONGRATS!!!!!!
