my husband is interested in the band , but we have no idea how to go about finding a good Dr. We live in south Jersey. If anyone has any experiences I'd appreciate it. He won't travel really far for anything so I'm looking for something close to home. Thanks

I was going to go with Dr Patel at Atlantic City Medical center but I have AETNA so now I'm going to Mexico. I was really bummed because Dr Patel made me feel very comfortable and all he does is Lap Bands. Not sure if he's too far for you. Good Luck.
