Hi Claire, and welcome

Hello what hospital will you be going to x

Hello and welcome.
I was referred by my Dr for surgery last October, and I'm having my surgery on Saturday. I live in Sussex, I think that I have been very lucky with the waiting time all things considered.
I wish you all the very best of luck on your weight loss journey.
