Oh ok I'm with you! You may have to see the Bariatric Physician first (if the 4healthy weight MDT decide you're a good candidate) or the Nurse then I burbs you get your pack, choose the hospital etc. I'm going to Chichester as well and currently waiting on the MDT assessment appointment there. I'm not sure about the other hospitals but at Chichester you have to complete a questionnaire and a weeks food diary before they will see you!
All this info is fab hun, just hope I get that far! I don't really know the whole protocol for it all, I only know what I have been told by the 4 healthy weight team. I thought I had to see Dr Emanuel but when I spoke to the 4 healthy weight coordinator I was told I would only see the bariatric physician if they thought I had any medical complications? I was told once I have been put forward for the MDT meeting I would get a pack, I suppose until the whole team have discussed my case I won't actually know if I will have to meet Dr Emanuel or not. I don't have any medical complications that I know of and have never been diagnosed with depression or anything like that so fingers crossed I may skip that part lol x
I'm only 9 months into the journey at the mo so I know I still have quiet a wait yet x
Hoping you hear something soon hun, I feel your pain! Lol x
