I had surgery on 5/23 at NYU and was operated on by Dr. George Fielding. He's my hero!!! Office is frantic and always packed but well worth it for the class of surgeons like Fielding, Ren and Kurian. I love my surgeon but know that they are all great.

I was banded by George Fielding on 7/7/08 and he is great! Being banded was the best thing I ever did for myself!

I was banded on 9/16/08 by Dr. Kurian who is not only an excellent surgeon, but also a compassionate woman. I could not have made a better choice!!!! My loss has been slow about 25 pounds since pre-op diet which stared on 9/1; but that is really on me, since I struggle with the sweets somewhat still.

I could not ask for more in terms of a practice!

I'm being banded on March 9th by Dr. Fielding. I can't believe how few of us NYUers seem to be on this board given how busy that office is!

Next time you're in the office make sure to mention LaBandTalk to the people sitting around you :thumbup:

I've actually communicated with quite a few members on here that have used Dr. Fielding or Dr. Ren.

LOL good point. And given how long one sits around that office there is plenty of time for discussion :smile:

I guess I am not active enough on the board yet so I haven't come across the other NYUers.

I was banded by Dr. Ren on 2/2/09 and I have nothing but good things to say about her and the practice. Yes the office is busy, but everyone is in the same boat - you run into people there over and over again, its kind of nice to see familiar faces.

LOVE Dr. Ren and LOVE the whole staff.

I am being banded by Dr. Fielding on February 24th. I agree with the previous comments; the office always seems to be packed, but I have really appreciated the personal attention that I have received once in the door. While I am extremely nervous about having surgery, all of the feedback about Dr. Fielding and the other doctors at NYU has been nothing but positive.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
