I went for a consultation at the Barix clinics in Langhorne PA. The doctor I saw keeps pushing the gastric bypass, but I know I definately want the band. He said that they will have someone from Lap band come and put it in since that's not what he does. I want to know more about the doctor who will be doing it even if he is from Lap band.

I am thinking about looking for another doctor just in case. I am waiting for a call back from the Clinic about the doctor but haven't heard anything. Does anyone have any recommendations for a doctor they used in Pa or NJ? I have started with my doctor superivised 6 month weight loss plan, and hope to be ready by the begining of October to be banded. Any help would be really appreciated!

Thanks!

I can definitely recommend the Weight Loss Clinic in Harrisburg. It's probably a little too far away for you, but they were great.

Thanks I will go online and check those out. They are a bit far from me, but will check them out all the same. A nurse friend told me about a Dr. Noyan in Hamilton NJ. She had a friend that used him, anyone know anything about him? Thanks again!

I can also definitely recommend the Weight Loss Clinic in Harrisburg, I'm also going through the 6 month supervised diet and will hopefully be banded in October as well. I am going with Dr. Matthew Davidson, HIGHLY recommend him. Good luck!

i can recommend dr reich in manahawkin, NJ they are awesome there and have the highest success rate around here. i work with someone that had it done and lost 200 lbs in less then 2 years. I had my surgery last week and i already lost 42 lbs... 30 lbs in the last week! The staff there are awesome too... very supportive and very pro band

I would definitely find a new doctor....

Mine was Dr. Richard Pucci. He is one of three doctors in his practice (Advanced Laparoscopic Specialists LLC) and they are all brothers. Extremely nice people. They are in Suffern NY 845-368-1500, Goshen NY 845-775-7505, Ridgewood NJ 201-447-2808, and Oradell NJ 201-262-4800. Not sure where you are located but if you are near any of those locations they are highly recommended.

Hope this helps and good luck!

You lost 30 pounds in 1 week?!! I didn't think that was even possible-congratulations!!!:tongue3:

I have to agree Dr. Adam Goldstein, Voorhees, NJ. I knew he was my doc after his seminar. I scheduled my consult right then and there.

I have to agree with my fellow poste...Dr Adam Goldstein in Voorhees NJ and Sewell, NJ (where I am seeing him). I went to his seminar and was "ahhh" with his presentation. He is so down to earth. I have search and found he is best for me. Good luck.
