Anyone in London for gastric sleeve

[HelenAngelfish]

My total wait was 6 months at St Marys. Some people wait years.

It's a postcode lottery.

My experience at St Marys was

Group Meeting
Surgeons etc
Psychologist
Dietitian
Then wait for MDT meeting to get go ahead and date.

Mine took 6 months. Not sure if they have changed the process.

From dietitian to MDT was 3 months. Longest wait of the process.

I just kept calling them lol xx

Well I'm on my 3rd appointment now and my understanding each appointment is 3 months apart, the 2nd appointment is to meet the surgeon and sign consent
But if you call regularly you may get a cancellation and your appointment can get moved forward to an earlier date
