| Hi Wizki, i am just a little firther down the road in Albany. I had my sleeve donw in December last year and was the best thing i had done. I went over to Bunbury to have mine done,Dr W is great and they really take care of you.I just dont like Perth and did not want to just be another number,i just have an adversion to the city and could not even think of going to stay up there for a while. I am glad you have found this site,you will meet great people and see ups and down and get plenty of info too,you only need to ask and someone out there will have an answer for you.
All the best | |

| My name is Rachael and I have my first appointment with Dr Padovan in May to discuss having a gastric sleeve, my sister recently had one and the results of this is why I am now contemplating having the same type of surgery.
I am scared but know the positives out weight the negatives, (should be able to come most of my medication - blood pressure and cholesterol)
Hoping my journey will be positive like most here.....
Here's hoping.. | |
