I was just told that he is leaving the practice and they don't give evaluations for WLS

Bummer!

It stinks that he is leaving. Yes, he was the only one there that did them. I had a hard time finding him too. The contact that Dr Goldstein gave me didn't take my insurance. I will see if I can find her name for you... Maybe she takes your insurance ...

Also try www.thecenterforemotionalhealth.com. They do pre-op evals and they say they have an office in Central Jersey. Hope this helps!

I need a psych evaluation for clearance.Does anyone know of any to recommend.I am in central New Jersey.

I can go more north or south depending how far.

I would highly recommend Jeanine Miles in Marlton (856-797-4805). She performed my psych eval and has had WLS herself.

Im in Ocean County and traveling to Mexico-Tijuana for mine. Insurance standards are maddening and seems like they would rather me stay unhealthy and obese.

i went to Advanced Laproscopic in Paramus and Dr. Schmidt was my surgeon. I picked Dr. Schmidt because he seemed the most down to earth which I liked. The staff is wonderful. Hackensack Hospital had its own bariatric wing for recovery and the nurses were great. Just a very positive experience.

How was your experience with Dr Schmidt and his office. I was going threw the process and insurance changed so now I have to switch surgeons. In going to the Advanced Lap seminar at St Joe's this week.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
