Hi everyone,

I am schedule for RNY at Temple with Dr. Meilahn on 2/26. Wondering if anyone else has used him and your thoughts?

I also had a 2nd opinion yesterday at Abington Bariatrics with Dr. G who said he could fit me in too.

Thoughts?

Hubby and I both had our surgeries @ Temple - great team - did not have Dr. Meilahn for the actual surgery, my hubby had him for a follow up procedure great surgeon. Another relative had his surgery with dr. Meilahan - loved him, great care etc.

I cannot say enough about the Temple surgical team they are tops..

Hi Victoria, I did end up deciding to go with Dr B to get the VSG and everything was good. Maybe we can meet one day at one of the support groups.
