Hi everyone! I go in the 29th for my physical and history appointment with Dr schumacher on the 29th of this month  and they said they will have my surgery date then my family has never had anything like this done before but they keep saying no longer than 2 weeks but i dont know if they are right so my questions is does anyone know usally about how long after the physical and history appointment do they schedule the surgery??? Thanks for all of your help

 do you get any psychological, nutritional and sugery info.  I had several info sessions before my surgery that I think were crticial in my success.  Dr. S is part of the same network but may teach his paitents differently than mine did.  You may want to attend a support group to discuss your thoughts, they are mondays at 7pm (today) at the Kettering Weight Loss center that serves his office.

TRUE, MOST DR'S HAVE YOU FOLLOW STEPS LIKE PSYCH, NUTRITION, AND SEE THE SURGEON AT LEAST TWICE THEN IF YOU PASS THIS THEN YOU ARE GOOD TO GO...THAT IS HOW CLEVELAND CLINIC (DR. SCHAUER'S) GROUP PROCEEDS....GOOD LUCK AND GOD IS WITH YOU....
