Hi all
This is a question for anyone who has been referred in West Essex .
I have been doing morelife for the past eleven weeks as my tier 3 and after 12 months I am hoping to be referred for surgery. I’m so confused about how much weight I’m supposed to lose as the criteria changed last year. I...
Thankyou all for your support. I haven’t got as far as any hospital appointments yet but I’m hoping to get referred to Homerton Hospital. I know the criteria changed recently ( it used to be if you had a bmi over 50 only 6 months tier 3 was needed to be referred) But it’s still not very clear...

Hi Victoria,

Im really desperate for...
I did actually email my ccg as I was at a loss as what to do next a very kind lady forwarded my email to the funding department who said the referral would have to come from my doctor. My whole doctors practice seems not to want to help and I really feel like I'm banging my head against a brick...
I'm still attending the program only 4 weekly now. Apparently you have to do it for a year before it counts as tier 3. I'm fine with that it's just it's the up to my doctor to refer me and he's not said anything about doing so.
