Has anyone had experience with the weight loss clinic in harrisburg,pa.? I beleive I will be seeing Dr. Dimarco or Dr. Currie.

Yes, just had surgery with them. :)

They are very professional and the hospital the surgery is performed in is wonderful. Only bit of advice is that if you are seeing Dr. DiMarco is bring a book because he is always VERY late. (once it was 3 hours!)

ROSENBERGER IS A+....GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!

I was banded in June and Dr. Rosenberger did my surgery too. He was great. I randomly had a fever just before I was suppose to have my surgery (I was in the gown and everything!) and the nurse was threatening to make me go home and reschedule. Dr. Rosenberger was very nice and helped me calm down (at this point I was freak out) and rechecked my temp a bit later and it was normal. I still don't know what caused it to go up (nerves perhaps?) but I'm so grateful that he was nice and left me stay and get my surgery!

While I loved him, I'm not so happy with the office staff at the Weight Loss Clinic. They sometimes seem so clueless. They have lost several faxes from my other doctors (Psyc, and PCP) and they've scheduled my husband for the wrong type of appointment on 2 separate occasions.

I too had my surgery done thru WLC, Dr. Prashar...I'm also not that thrilled with the office staff there, I called several weeks ago wanting to come back in sooner than my next scheduled appt. and was told by office staff that I couldnt because I was still in my 90 day period, whatever that meant! I have a appointment on March 28 at that time I will ask the doctor whose managing my care him or the office staff

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
