My surgeon is Dr Petrick. He seems pretty cool. I live outside Wilkes Barre so I always use the Geisinger Wyoming Valley hospital. I was told they are going to start doing surgeries here at some point this year. Danville is about an hour from me. My insurance approved the initial request and I was told they would be submitting for final approval this week. I'm so ready for the surgery already. I hope the final approval process is quick because I'm so ready to do this! 2 weeks to go!

Hi. Newbie here...I'm in Pittsburgh. My surgery is Thursday the 20th...days away... I see a lot of people have shakes and stuff week before. my doctor only has me on shakes for the last three days well last the last day being on clear liquids. I guess every doctors different or person? I'll be at West Penn.

I'm in PA too. I go to Geisinger Danville and my surgeon will be Dr. Gabrielsen. My surgery is on April 9th! Anyone else that has had Dr. Gabrielsen, what's your opinion on him? I've only met him once, but he seems to be an excellent dr./surgeon!

Hey so I am currently in progress of waiting to hear back about my surgery date for university of penn in Philadelphia.

I had posted about my mom going via geisinger earlier (other post - can't remember password to use that login opps! lol) but my mom seems to like dr gableson we met another girl last summer who suggested the surgery and that is who she had- loved him. Best of luck everyone!
