I'm telling you he is wonderful!! I have talked to numerous patients in the waiting room that have told me he saved their life bc another surgeon messed up the surgery. I love him and believe its bc of his good work that I have almost zero complications. Nice to meet you too!

Greetings PA peoples. I saw a few of you going to Magee too. Just had my surgery last Thursday with Dr Eid. Everything went fine so I recommend him for anyone looking.

My BF had Dr Eid last year and everything went great with him as well.

Ladies, I need some advice. My husband has a union job and his medical leaves are not paid. Although I like Dr Gange at west Penn. We are looking for a surgen who does not require 6 visits to him on top of the monthly pcp follow ups. He simply can not take the time from work. Anyone have a surgen who required far fewer visits?

I had 6 monthly classes a d weighs in but were all in the evening. Dr. Peluso at Pittsburgh bariatric. Your clearances might be able to be scheduled on weekends if those offices are open.

For my original surgery I went to Dr.Patel who is now at Cooper in NJ, with him I was in the hospital almost a week, then on short term for two weeks after. I had to convince him I was okay to go back early, but I have a desk job. What kind of work does ur husband do? If it a physical laboring job, he may not be able to go right back. Or he could hit himself or slow done healing.
