I have an appointment on Friday with Dr. Dallal, but I havnt exactly picked a Dr for surgery. He was the first available, so I went with him. I met him recently at an orientation and I thought he was really nice. I'm so excited and nervous all at the same time! I just hope everything works out ok with my insurance. I have Horizon BC/BS of NJ.

Mommy327 I am in the suburbs of Philly. I will be having my surgery at Einstein as well! Who was your DR? I am at the beginning. I have started a 6 month pre approval diet, and my first consultation is this Friday in Elkins Park. Any advice? :-)

I am also at Elkins Park. Just finished the 12 weeks nutrition and all appointments, My Pre op is the 6th and Surgery is December 17th. Like Mommy 327 I also have Dr Trang. Everyone is really great there.
I'm in York. I know there are a few more PA folks out there on the boards!

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.

This is the surgeon I will have! I met him in October for the initial visit... My 6 months will end February 4th. Hoping to have a date in March!

Everything went fine? He seemed very nice when I saw him.
