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.

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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
