Does anyone know my doctor from NYU in NY?

Hi there! Happy New Years! I am scheduled for surgery on Jan 11th. I am 4 days into the pre-op diet. First few days were really hard - but it feels like it's getting easier!! Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with Dr. Bradley Schwack or the Langone Weight Center?

I've had all the other tests, but I still haven't had the psych exam - trying to get it scheduled! It would be a bummer if that held me up!

Would love to hear others experiences!

Thanks

Ann

My wife and I both used the center at NYU. We used Dr Fielding but I have also had occasion to meet with Dr Schwack and he seems like a great guy. In general we are both extremely happy with the NYU program.

Thanks for the info. Best of luck. I am all set for Jan 11! Very excited!!

Hi Ann,

I'm a patient of Dr. Schwack and was banded on 12/7/10. He is FANTASTIC. I really trust him and I really like him. He's very user friendly, accessible, and kind. His assistant, Leslie Betancourt, is a total dream. She answers e-mails fast and is very reachable. A great team. You couldn't have picked better. Ross

Thanks for the info! Glad to hear things went well for you!! Hope you are feeling great. I haven't received my surgery time - do you know if that happens the day before?

I knew I would be the 'first patient in', but the hospital called me at about 6:30 pm the night before with an exact time. Good luck!
