Hi Tmick,

Seems like you are in the same boat as me. I am going to be having my surgery with Dr. Roye at RIH too. I got my testing packet at the end of december and all of my tests are scheduled for this month. I am so excited. I dont know of anyone else going through this or having surgery with Dr. Roye...It seems most people goto Dr. Pohl. Any insight you have would be greatly appreciated.

I just got my packet in yesterday and all my tests are scheduled for the end of this month and one the second week of feb!! 

I am so tired of the wait though! 

I am getting RNY - you?

Wow One year!! I have been waiting 6 months so far!! I just got my packet yesterday and have the same teasting schedule as you - the last is the pulmonary and ABG... don't forget on that list are 3 tests that are not scheduled and one is bloodwork that has to be the last test - I called and was told we could have that done the same day as the ABG test. 

Congrats
Once you start the tests it goes really quickly

Hi JDC,

I am getting the Lap Band procedure done. I am very excited, im just wondering how long it will take to actually have the surgery once all the test are completed. Have you met with Dr. Roye? I started this process in September and met with the NP and that was it.

I started in July when I went to the info session and saw him... then I had an appointment that is usually with the NP but was with him because she was on vacation. I needed to complete a 6 month pre-op diet. Finished in Dec - got my approval within 3 days of that... fast forward to now.

I am guessing we will get the final appointment with him within 2 weeks of the last test req.  and I am guessing that within 3 weeks from there we will have our surgery.  I am not positive but those are my best gueses... I was hoping from the beginning to have my surgery this month but I am guessing March now.

I also had the 6 month ordeal but it was good I lost 63 lbs, I really hope the time flies I am so excited now that it finally within sight.
