Hello My Pa Peeps

Hi friends. I am Jeff from Leighton, PA...about 30 minutes north of Allentown.

I'm new to the group. So far everyone has been amazing. My hospital of choice is Lehigh Valley Health Network.

Next week is my first appointment in their program. A structured physical with a nurse practitioner and all the initial paperwork.
