This is a discussion on Know a Dr. or hospital in Lehigh Valley, PA? within the Doctors and Hospitals forums, part of the Main Lap-Band Surgery Forums category; After attending a seminar last night I have made the decision to go for this. However, I cannot seem to ...
Doctors and HospitalsDevoted to discussions related to Lap-Band Doctors and Lap-band hospitals. Subjects include past experiences, fills, lap band costs, length of procedure and stay, performance related issues and recommendations.
From what I understand they do the Band at Lehigh Valley, Dr. Boorse. Me personally I have an appointment down at Jeane's Hospital near Philly with a Dr. Kowalski, they are affiliated with Temple and he performed more then 75 procedures last year---which experience is very important to me.
I am in the LV also. Check out the Weight Loss Clinic in Harrisburg. Alot cheaper than the prices here. Also, one year of aftercare is included in price.
Lehigh Valley Hosp. has a Dr. Boorse. I will be attending a seminar on 06/05/08. Where did you go for your seminar? Do you know anything about the Sacred Heart Hosp. in Allentown?
Yes - Dr.Holland - I've been to two of their seminars. He seems to be very, very personable and has a great team of women working with his clinic. I believe he only does gastric bypass - not any lap banding. If I were to have gastric bypass - I'd definitely go with him. I've decided on the band - I'm going with Dr. Boorse out of Lehigh Valley Hospital. I'm currently in the long-drawn out 6-month program - information is great, but why does it have to take 6 months??? Wish you luck...
