Hi, I'm using Dr. Beth Schrope, she is located in Ridgewood and they take UHC. I am scheduled for 12/23, she was very personable and the staff is great. They are very on top of everything and helpful, with all of my questions and concerns they were always there with an answer.

Hi Mr. Mike, I am scheduled with Dr. Schrope on 12/23 at Valley. How was your experience w/the Dr. Davis/Valley hospital? I am nervous and excited at the same time.

This is my first time posting, even though I've been reading other posts for a few months. I finally have a date for my band after following a long 6 month supervised diet with my physician. My surgeons office called the day before Thanksgiving to let me know my approval from UHC came in and that I am scheduled for 12/23. Finally!!! :smile2: This is my second week on the protein diet and some days are easy and others are very hard. I am starting to panic, now that it's only a few days away. I have never had any type of surgery before, so I don't know what to expect. I don't want to mention my anxiety to my husband or daughter because I don't want them to worry too. Reading all of these posts and seeing what everyone else has gone through helps a little, but then I go to bed at night and the worrying starts again.
