Weight Management Service - Leeds

[likealobster]

Hi,
I have been given an appointment for a surgical assessment with the Weight Management Service in Leeds. The appointment is with a dietician. I was wondering if anyone else has gone through the same process in Leeds and can give me an idea of what to expect at this appointment.

Jeff maybe??

Cheers

Hi I'm about to go through LWMS too. My GP has ticked the referral form for the Tier 5 option I think it is. So straight to the chief dietitian for referral to the surgeon. No idea what to expect. Fingers crossed for both of us!

From other forums I think its an appointment with the dietician - if its Mary O'Hare she is lovely and then a recommendation to the multidisciplinary team who have the final say-so

Hope this helps - its not how I did it cos I was transferred from Huddersfield cos I'd waited too long - lol

Good luck

Angela

my apologies, i din't see this thread, i was refered to these guys i believe!!?? must have been, that was sometime at the end of 2008 i was put on the list, if i remember there are various locations where you see the dietician, i saw mine at Chapeltown Health Centre, she went through all my previous dieting history, the health probs i had etc at the time, weight, height etc....i believe this is the 1st step, usually a community dietician who will then refer you onwards and upwards if they believe you are a suitable candidate....my route, altho NHS, was later diverted into the private sector, where i later saw Mr Pollard and his Lovely wife Glenda - the head dietician at The Spire in Roundhay, obviously the rest is history for me!! any help i can maybe offer, pls feel free to pm me, i do come on from time to time, just not as often as i did
