Oh wow!!! That is fast.....I see Dr. Bojani. Does the Opti cost $200 per week?

I had Dr. Bhojani for my surgery too. He was great. At the pre-op I only saw him at the end of the appointment when he said I was a great candidate and he checked my belly. Prior to that I saw Dr. Ramje, not sure how to spell that!!
Opti is $100 a week.
If you want an in-depth view of my surgery and post-op feel free to message me.
I am 9 days post-op and I feel great.
I've got Dr Jules Foute-Nelong.
May 22nd surgery.
No opti...I lucked out!

Good luck to you. I too had Dr. Bohjani and he was great. Had my surgery Sept. 12/17 and everything went perfectly. The nurse saw me first taking my weight, blood pressure and going through information that they provided me for surgery. Dr. Bohjani did go through information about the surgery and possible complications just to be sure I understood. He gave me my date for surgery that day. Initially offered surgery the following week, but I asked for it to be mid September so I can arrange work things.
Anyways, best of luck to you. Your in good hands.
