Hi TDeRo...I am being banded by Dr. Ramachandra at Mercy Fitzgerald in Darby. I am impressed with the team. And the process doesn't seem to take long. I had my initial consult on 033108 and was approved 2 weeks later. Everything moved along so quickly. Give them a call. 610.534.6170.

Hi, I'm from Bensalem and I am seeing Dr. Dempsey at Jeannes Hospital. I finish my testing 05/15, and need the psych eval and a date.

I just got banded on 9/24/08. My doctor was Dr. Matt Kirkland of Pennsylvania Hospital at 8th and Spruce Streets. I'm not sure how he handles fills from another doctor. Look him up on Penn's website. I'm sure the office can set an appointment up for you or direct you to the right doctor.
