First look on your insurance companys web site. Contact listed MDs. You may also call your bariactric surgeon and ask if they have a list of MDs. I live in NJ and I had my eval done by Bridge Mental Health (732) 701-8400. Her name was Dr. Helen Demetriades. She was very understanding. Good luck!

lol. I live Upstate NY and my surgeon is in LI, NY. I travel almost three hours to seem him w/o a problem. His facility is some kind of wonderful...all of the doctors one will ever need in order to obtain clearance prior to this SILS (single incision laparoscopic surgery) band are in the same building working together with ea other - a great convenience for me. My surgeon's name is Dr. Hollover and he works together with Dr. Garber, both are certified to the gills in bariatric surgery. I have GHI PPO and Dr. Hollover is in the network for me. I do hope it all works out. Cheers.

I used Dr. Lon Geiser. I think he takes most insurance.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
