    I'm actually trying to move to Mason or west Chester now.

    You should I love it here. Just depends on the price range you are looking for, it's all possible. Do you have kids? Just asking because in west Chester it's a great school but if they play sports it's really expensive

    I live in Beavercreek and I had my sleeve done by Dr. Siddiqui at MVH in October. He is very professional though not a lot of TLC. He did a very good job and the folks at MVH were fantastic. I have no regrets and have had a quick, uneventful recovery. I have my 6 week post-op appointment on this Tuesday.

MVH has monthly group meetings I misted the one on the 13th I think it was I was in meetings all day :(

    Dr. Siddiqui is very straight forward and professional. No small talk or reassurance like my primary care dr. He is a very good surgeon.
