Hi everyone

It's lovely to be here and find this wonderful site.

I'm looking into bariatric surgery

Have found cosmetic bliss and have filled in a medical questionnaire so, just waiting to hear back now.

I think I've decided on gastric sleeve


Did have a band for 6 months but it slipped and was removed 2 years ago

I'm looking forward to hearing from you all and also sharing my journey with you

Does anybody know how long after sending the medical questionnaire in, do you hear back?

Hi Trace, Welcome to the group.
There will be plenty of others coming along soon who have had their ops and can give you more details but I think it kind of depends on where you are in the country. I'm in south East London and I've been waiting a year now, others in Wales for instance have only waited a few months. So I think your going to get lot's of different answers. but you will get lots of useful advice!
Good luck anyway.
