I will also be doing my surgery there in April. What was your experience, particularly with Dr Parikh and Bellevue. Any complications/complaints. I appreciate and await your response

I'm not actually NYC but I'm close!! I live in Harriman (up by West Point in the Hudson Valley)! The city is about an hour from me!! I had my surgery at West Point (since my DH is retired military!) We LOVE coming into the city though! Coming in on Wed. to go to the Radio City Christmas Spectacular!

Hi my name is Damaris and i do plan on getting the sleeve done. I dont have a date yet because i was originally going to go with the lapband and then i found some info about the sleeve..., so i started the process or the lap band and went to orientation, but now next week i have the orientation with the sleeve coordinator and the following week with the surgeon......which will be march 31, 2011..... im hoping that after gathering all test my insurance approves quick......does anyone know how healthfirst works or how long they take....im hoping i can get my surgery done in may 2011....
