Hello!
I am being sleeved by Dolan on 9August at Glengarry also!
Dolan did my band in 2010 (that failed for me) but I think he is a fantastic doctor! We'll be in this together! :-)

Welcome stuss28

I didn't have Dr Dolan but I think there is 2 on site at the moment who are going to have him either next month or July. I would think he maybe does this for extra security but I don't really know didn't he tell you why I believe it would be best to ring the surgery and ask that question again to make sure. Pretty much all of the Drs are happy to answer questions that are worrying you he may have a nurse who can tell you.

I have now been done 3 weeks I was similar weight but I must be taller as our BMI differ slightly. I have no regrets so far and my surgery went without a hitch and my scars are almost not visable astounding really.

Good luck to you look on the sleevers monthly for June July for those other 2 and then make sure you message August to put you on their list

Just checked 1 in July and 1 in August

Hi All

I am new too all this and just wanted to say hi!

After doing lots of research and finally taking the plunge I have had my first appointment with DR Dolan I am 34 and have a BMI 41 so have been given the go ahead. I have my date booked for August the 9th...I am very excited but also still a bit scared.

In reading and looking at everyone's pics I know I am doing the right think but think I just need a bit of reassurance from someone.
I have struggled with weight loss all my life and am now at my heaviest of 110kg.

Has anyone else been sleeved by Dr Dolan at Glengarry how did you find the recovery ...Also is it standard practice to staple and stitch and anyone know if he does this to avoid leaks.

I look forward to your reply's.
