My papers were recently submitted for an approval (hopefully) but my question is how
long after an approval does your doctors office schedule surgery for some people i hear like two weeks for a pre-surgery diet.I was wondering because I don't want to wait two weeks if i do get an approval maybe like a week and i don't want to wait like a month or two.lol but if i have to oh well, of course i will but i would prefer not to.
If i need to do a two week liquid diet i would rather start sooner than later lol

what were some of your time frames...i just want a idea
preferably TX,Dallas Dr.Wade Barkers office

I had mine 4 years ago with Dr Wade but he's much busier now.  I had to wait over a month from approval date to surgery date.  Call the office and ask-they'll tell you what the usual wait time is.
