Hello All,

Anyone have a doctor around Philly?

Thanks!

Dr. Dallal at Einstein Elkins Park does fills and bands.

I am going to my first seminar at U Penn tomorrow. Hoping to have Dr. Williams do my surgery. Were you satisfied with everything?

Hi all! I just wanted to say hi -- I had my band done in Mexico at the end of August (Dr. Ortiz) - great experience -- and for the first year, decided to do my fills in NYC because of Dr. Ren's reputation. So far so good -- the fills are effortless (except for the train ride/cost!), and on my third, then fourth, reached that elusive non-hunger level. It goes away pretty quickly when I lose weight though - so that can get expensive! By Year 2, I will probably start using the Mt. Laurel fill center for convenience and because I've heard a few good things about the doc. Challenge is, the Ren office has support groups which I've found informative -- they include dinners at restaurants where you learn how to eat ( haven't made it to one of those yet!) Has anyone found/started a support group in the Philly area that Mexico bandsters can go to? Nothing heavy -- just going out with folks, even to cafes/restaurants, who can commiserate with the glacially slow pace of eating that we must undertake!

Anyhow, glad to meet some other Philly "Phillers"!
