If you choose the Huntington area Dr Nease is a great doctor to see.  He and his staff are very helpful and return calls promptly.  They have taken wonderful care of me since I began the WLS journey last year.

I am a Beckley Gal here! I have lived in this area since I was born. I love it! My sisters are scattered in all different areas in North Carolina. I will admit, its nice to visit, but there is no place like home. I am actually about 10 minutes outside of Beckley in Eccles. My kids go to a great school and I couldnt be more happy.

What is it that you do with the Fed Gov? I know the Fed Court and Fed Prison is here in Beckley if that is the sort of work that you do.

Its a great area. Research it, I am sure you will be pleased. Plus, my surgeon is only like 30 minutes away. He also has great reviews.

Happy Hunting!

I think no matter where you go in WV you will find your really never more than ten to fifteen minutes at most from a rural area. You will also find several bariatric programs in WV. Huntington has 2. I am not sure how many Charleston has but if you search for local hospitals you will find them. I live near Huntington and I went to King's Daughers Medical Center which is just across the river in Ky. They were the first Center of Excellence in the area. You can go to www.kdmc.com and there is a link at the bottom of the page for there surgical weight loss program. I am the one on the motorcycle. If you go through the profiles on their web site you will figure it out. The Huntington and Barboursville area both have new high schools, built in the last 10 years or so.  pan head

Hi!  I live just outside of Charleston in a little town called Comfort.  It's close enought to get to everything pretty quick, but still out in the country.  Dr. Daniel Stickler saved my life.  He performed a vertical sleeve gastrectomy almost 2 years ago.  I was the first one he had done and the first one done in WV.  I have lost 290 pounds.  He is the best bariatric surgeon I know.  If you have any questions, let me know.  Dr. Bandak, in Charleston, is my plastic surgeon.  He is wonderful!!

surronding areas of charleston is good for finding acres. if you want cold and snow then summersville and beckley has it, charleston and huntington are warmer. I live in a small town called chelyan,  we travel to summersville lake every weekend in the summer and love it  But the winter snow is bad and cold, not to many things to do other than the lake, thers so much to do in charleston ,good schools, church ,entertinamint. 10 to 15 minuts out of charleston you can find nice homes with acres.
