Hey, Peter - welcome.
3-4 years ago is when the sleeve was newly out, so I don't blame you for waiting. I would have too, if I'd known about it.
Good luck with your appointment.

Hi Peter & again welcome I'm sure that someone will be able to help from the forum.

Hi Peter,
Good luck with the appointment !! Hope it all goes well.

Welcome to the forum, you will get HEAPS!!! of help and support here!

Hi All,

Hopefully about to start my journey into being sleeved.

I decided about 3-4 years ago that having a sleeve is my preferred option over a Lapband, but wanted to see more data about VSG used long term on it's own, without being followed by a bypass operation.

I finally joined a health fund almost a year ago, and next Friday have my first appointment at Mercy Bariatric.

If anyone has been done or has an opinion about the team at Mercy, feel free to send me a PM.

I hope to post some more after next weeks visit.

Regards,

Peter.
