    Default Anyone get dental work at Jerusalem Hospital while there for the sleeve?

    Hi
    I know Jerusalem Hospital has a dental clinic there and I was wondering if anyone who went for the sleeve got any work done while you were there? I need a root canal and two crowns and I was wondering if I would be able to get that without making a separate trip? If anyone has gotten crowns there, can you tell me if they can put permanent ones on during the 3-4 days you are there recovering from surgery or if they put temporary crowns on at least while waiting for the permanent ones to come in? I can't get a straight answer on dental from my coordinator so I thought i'd ask anyone with direct experience. My coordinator doesn't seem to know much about the dental work and so I thought I'd ask. It would save me probably 2000$ to get crowns while I'm there. Thanks!!

    Louise the laison for dr. Almanza gave me the name of a good dentist but they don't do the dental work at the hospital. if you call Louise i'm sure she'll give you the name

    Thank you, uniqdrgnfly! I definitely need to get some dental done while I'm there! We are spending so much on surgery that I would love to save a few $ on dental work down there rather than here when I get back.
