Philadelphia,Pa/Montgomery County, Pa

Just trying to get some preliminary research done. I'm looking for recommendations for a surgeon in the Philadelphia/Montgomery county area. I will most likely be self pay since my insurance company(Keystone Health Plan East-HMO) does not cover Bariatric surgery. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      Dr. Ing at Bryn Mawr Hospital has been great. All of his staff are great too.

      I'm in the area as well and work with Penn Medicine. My surgeon is Dr. Kristoffel Dumon and surgery will be at UPenn Hospital (although there are other options of hospitals within the same practice).

      I'm going through Penn as well, in my case Pennsylvania Hospital at 8th and Spruce. All my appointments, including the psych screening, have been right there. I'm pretty impressed with the program so

    I am using Dr. Richard Ing. My surgery is at Bryn Mawr Hospital on 12/19/17. I would love to some input on others that have used him.
