Need to find another Program
My WLS was done at Saints Memorial in Lowell but they have moved to Lowell General Hospital. I like LGH better anyways!
Most places you will find will require you to loose or at the very least maintain your weight until a few weeks up until your surgery. I had to loose about 11 pounds before my surgery to make my liver smaller for the surgery (I think most everyone has to go through this). LGH has support groups pre and post opt constantly.
Good Luck with your decision.
