How come you have to see him again? I had no appointments at BMI after they put my referral in as everything was done. Maybe you misunderstood.

Hi, I'm going through BMI also, and had my Dietician approval on October 4th. She told me I'd get a call within 2-3 weeks to meet the surgeon. I'm getting anxious lol

Dietician asked me to book an appointment with her for the first week of November assuming I'd be on my first week of opti by then. I was told if I don't hear anything by the 3 week mark, to call BMI and let them know I haven't had a call yet.

Lol! Wow, we have our appointments at the same times. I was approved by Lauren on Oct 3rd, and she also wanted to see me the first week of November thinking I will be on Opti. We are in the same boat
