Time frame?

[JulesE]

Hi again - Hope you're not all getting sick of my many questions!

I'm looking at going private for a gastric band.

Just wondered how long your process took from initial enquiry to actually having the op?

Many thanks - again!

Hi Jules,
It only took 2 weeks for me, from the first phone call to the actuall Op.

Hello Jules

For me it will have taken 4 weeks from consultation with dietician to having the band op.

Mine was 2 weeks to start with but had to postpone as had a chest infection. Had it done 1 month later with Spire Manchester.
Best thing I ever did.

Well done Coralie with your weightloss that is a lot of weight since your Op.
