Hi everyone I am in the early stages of starting my journey to getting sleeved . I weigh 189 lbs and I am 5'1 tall . I have hyper tension and I have had gestational diabetes twice with my pregnancies . I have a cholesterol level of 270 at my last blood test . I am currently on meds for cholesterol and high blood pressure. I live in Staten Island and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a surgeon out here . I am also having a problem because my primary doctor does not believe in weight loss surgery and will not sign off on the 6 month supervised diet that is required by my insurance . I could sure use some advice . Thank you
