How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I lost a few more pounds... Thought I'd post more before photos.
Pre-op Appointment
I had my pre op appointment yesterday and all these feelings came rushing over me at once; I was nervous, overwhelmed, scared, excited, everything! All at once. They give you so much information that it's hard to process it all right then. I'll try to recall what took place step by step. When I first arrived I had to sign a booklet of consent forms, literally. Then I paid for the exparel shots, they are optional but highly recommended and ARE NOT included in your quote. After giving more money (sigh :-/) I was taken back to my room where I met with Dr. Davoudi's nurse. She gave me a brief run down of the do's and don'ts regarding surgery and recovery. She also gives you a list of things she recommends you buy to make recovery easier. Later, Dr. Davoudi came in, had me pull out my phone to record what he was about to say and went to town, he talks so fast. He told me what to eat, when to eat, what to take, about the surgery, about recovery, etc... This is when I began to feel overwhelmed. After he was done with me, I was sent across the hall to speak with the hospital nurses. They ask very in depth questions about your medical history and tell you what to expect with anesthesia and recovery. Lastly, I was ushered down the hall to get my blood drawn. This all took about 2.5 hours.
Balance paid today.
I paid my balance today. So I'm doing this, no turning back. My kids went to camp for the summer so I can focus on recovering. I've been spinning for 1 hr everyday to lose any extra weight that may be hanging around and get my blood flowing. I don't count calories but I do eat a clean diet.
