  1. My husband and myself just attended a meeting at Rochester General Hospital where Dr. Galvin and Gusmano practice. My husband had the lap-band procedure performed on October 13th. There is a a new CEO at RGH and are right now in contract talks and the physicians are 95% sure on December 15th the bariatric center at Rochester General Hospital will be closing. It is a very sad day. For the patients that are pre op, post op (like my husband) and also the lap banders looking for fills and only one other physician in that area will be doing them. There needs to be some sort of change where the physicians and the hospitals start listening and caring about the people that are obese instead of looking at the all mighty $$$$. We will be looking also for suggestions with what my husband should do. There are only 2 physicians in the Rochester area that does the lap band procedure and one will be probably leaving the Rochester area on December 15th.
