Lehigh valley hospital has about a 600 dollar program fee and st. Luke's didn't have a fee. The reason st.lukes doesn't have one Is because they don't bill for your visits with the nut and social worker and stuff. I believe that Lehigh valley doesn't bill either but they still get there money from the program fee. I'm really happy with st. Luke's. another thing about st. Luke's is that doctor el chaar and doctor Claros did there fellowship in bariatric surgery and that's all they do. There rate of complications is very very low and they are very good at what they do

I had mine done at Geisinger in Danville PA. A friend of my moms had hers done at St Lukes and said the care was excellent.

I am thinking of switching from LVH to St Luke´s too. I am wondering what the difference in requirements are.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
