I had mine within 2 weeks. Depends on if ur in the program or doing it privately. I did the program and because they'd been following my progress for 6 months, all the insurance stuff was handled. Had surgery on 08/01/19 (423lbs). Today I'm 233.6! Ramirez is AMAZING!

There are many factors regarding the time for surgery. In average you will be ready for it between 3 to 6 months from initial evaluation, if you had been before in the Bariatric Center and they send you ready for surgery it takes about 3 to 6 weeks. Thank you for asking.
