How long after a consultation do you get a date? Started by: Alex Green

I had my consultation meeting with surgeon pre op then surgery all within a month… depends how available u can be. U have to have u pre op 2 weeks before surgery at latest xx

I haven’t even met my surgeon yet and I’ve reserved my surgery date. It’s just easier with work and I’ve wanted this done for so long that I not scared or apprehensive in any way.

I’ve researched my surgeon and am happy work my PC’s guidance on him giving me the look I want. My surgeon’s consultation and preop (you can request to have this done at same time if getting time off work is a struggle) is going to be 27th June and my surgery date will be July 17th! I’m very excited.

Because i booked my surgery date BEFORE I saw my surgeon, I had to pay £1000 to secure it (which gets taken off your balance obviously) a opposed to paying £500 if i waited to see him before booking surgery date. I checked and it is refundable /transferable except a small amount for admin fee should i prove to be unsuitable i guess.
