I had my band removed last April due to a slip and I'm researching the sleeve now. Can someone recommend a doctor in the NJ/PA area??

Thanks,

Hi Michelle,

I am using Dr. Bertha from Advance Laparoscopic Surgeons in Florham Park, NJ. He came very highly recommended. Unfortunately he hasnt done a whole lot of Sleeves but he is one of the top rated weight loss surgeons in North Jersey. Good luck!

Excellent hospital

Hershey Medical does the sleeve. There are 3 doctors that perform their surgeries.

I just had mine done at Hershey Medical by Dr. Ann Rogers. I am only 3 days out, but so far, so good. I actually had a very nice stay at the hospital, well as nice as a stay can be after surgery, it was much nicer than my local hospital.

I have been researching The Valley Hospital's Center for Metabolic and Weight Loss Surgery in Bergen county NJ.. it may be a little far from PA ... the Doctors associated with NY Presbyterian Hospital.. The docs names are...Melissa Bagloo, M.D.; Miguel Silva, M.D.; Beth Schrope, M.D., Ph.D.; and Marc Bessler, M.D. .. I have visited with Melissa Bagloo, M.D. iat the NJ office and found her to be pleasant to talk to and very informative .., she didnt rush me out of her office and was a true pleasure.. So far im sticking with her ./ she also part of my *** aetna plan.. hope this helps .. MT

This is where I had my sleeve on 6-7-11. They are FANTASTIC. My surgeon is Dr. Josloff. I love him, he and his support staff are wonderful.

Dr. Ed Yatco at Manhattan Minimally Invasive Barriatric Surgery was great and does lots of sleeves, I had my surgery at Lennox Hill in Manhattan and have no complaints.

I have a large piece of mesh in my upper abdomen from a prior surgery and he had to work around this and could not insert the instruments where he normall would. Also, he had to cut through lots of adhesions from the prior surgery.

No complications, back at work in 3 weeks, slow steady weight loss and I am off all meds for diabetes, blood pressure and arthritis. I could not have asked for better care or a better result.
