If anyone needs a good doctor to help with adjustments of their Lap Bands check out Dr. Gritsus from Advanced Surgical Solutions in Lincoln Park and Ridgewood NJ. He does his adjustments using fluoroscopy both at Chilton Memorial hospital Pompton Plains and The Valley Hospital in Ridgewood. Staff is very helpful with insurance. Their phone number is 973-696-9050. They also have a great nutritionist for counselling and support groups to participate in. :eek:

does this md do fills for pt's from mexico?

Just responding to your thread about Dr. Gritsus. He does help band patients from Mexico with their adjustments. Call them at 973 696 9050. The Adjustments are very important for your ultimate success with the band. Most patients need about 4 to 6 within their first year of surgery. Good luck!

I just called and te hospital fee is $300.00 AND the doctor's fee is $500.00!!!!
