Hi does anyone know of a great surgeon in NJ. Also how did you finally come to make your decision? I'm still struggling over if I should do the sleeve? My family is against it except for a few that feel I should do what's best for me. And my friends are against it as well but say they will support my decision. I'm just scared I focus on what if something goes wrong. I'm worried about long term later down the road. My mom passed from stomach cancer so I'm always worried if I do this surgery could I get stomach cancer etc... Any and all advice would be appreciated. I thank you all for listening. Good luck on your journeys! =)

Hi my name is Jackie, I'm new to this & would truly love help with more info. It would be helpful if anyone in Brooklyn, N.Y knows of any doctors who can do this surgery as well as a revision of the band & hernia removal. I also would love to know how people who have done this surgery feel 3yrs or more later. Are there any complications a couple years later? Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance & God bless!

Hi Bufflehead, How are you? Thank you so much for getting back to me I truly appreciate it. I'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Thank you for the info, it's funny cause the doctor you recommended is the doctor I'm schedule to see. I go the 25th of August for my first visit. I'm nervous, excited, undecided a bit. But I guess that's to be expected. So if you don't mind me asking what surgery did you do? Well I hope all is continuing to go well with you. Have a great weekend & thanks again.

Kathy, Thank you so much for getting back to me. I truly appreciate you taking the time out to do so. I'm glad to hear that because you read things online about risks with the sleeve, and I didn't know what to believe. I feel this is what's right for me just don't want any regrets or mistakes. I also want to find a great surgeon as well. Thank you so much again Kathy. I pray that all is going well with your wls & it continues to do so.
