I am, I'd be happy to talk.

I sent you a message.

Hi, I'm new to the site last pre-op appointment tomorrow then waiting for insurance approval. I'm a little nervous $ would love to have someone close by to communicate with.

Hey Philly friends! I grew up in Philly (Roxborough/Manayunk area)...now I live out in Lancaster.

Having people to talk to through this journey is so important. I am thankful to have a few friends who went thru the surgery to talk to in addition to my family.

If the practice that you go to has a support group, GO! Network! Ask questions! They're helpful.

I'm also from Philadelphia! Just had my first consultation with Dr. Meilahn on the 19th.

HI! Dr. Meilahn was my surgeon too. How'd your first visit go?

HI. Im from the Reading area in PA. Im still pre-op. I think maybe 3 more months to go.

Surgery will be at St Lukes in Allentown, PA. Would love to meet some local people!

I live in Allentown, PA and am having surgery at Sacred Heart Hospital with Dr. Holland on December 21, 2015. I would like to meet and talk with some locals as well.
