Connecticut Sleevers?

I havent found many CT sleevers on here. A few and they have been wonderful to me. I find that the support groups are few and far between and would love to develop something more!

  • Hello! Lindsay here from Collinsville. I'm just starting my journey but I will be having my surgery at Midstate. Nice to see some CT people on here!

  • Day 3 of my pre-op diet. I think the tide is finally turning. The last two days have been tough but the scale is responding already!

I'm 8 weeks out and my dr is awesome. He was with me the whole way. Dr rishi Ramlogan. From derby hospital. I would be more than happy to share with you his number.

Hi stacey i am not sleeved will be jan 29,13 I am in newington but i am having surgery at st Vincent in bridgeport

Any CT sleevers who felt scared b4 making that decision to cut your stomach. Still doing my research looking towards getting Dr Floch.

Oh yeah..............but 4 months out, and it's the best decision I made......

Karla, does your doctor have a back up plan for when he leaves?

If not Dr. Aranow over at Middlesex has a great reputation and is very experienced. My doctor is Craig Floch, and I couldn't be happier....best before and aftercare you could want.....plus his practice is very responsive......One thing to consider in choosing your doctor is the long term.....is his/her office and support groups close/convenient to get to

There is a support group at Middlesex Hospital....preops and post ops the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Mondays of the month at 6:30.....I have been going there even though my surgery was in Bridgeport.....good luck......PM me if I can be of any help.

I am new here. Located in Naugatuck, CT. I will be having surgery with Dr. Druffy at Yale. Anyone use him?

I didn't have him but I did have Dr. Nadzam at Yale. Everyone there was great!

Great! That was the other Doc I was looking at too! How long were you in hospital? Complications? How was the pain?

Hi I'm Kate. I had lap band in 09 and just sleeved 12-11-13 @ Yale. Dr Roberts did both. Fantastic work in each surgery.

I was just sleeved on January 8th. I was a band to sleeve. I would love to talk to others about issues or concerns or even just to walk. I live in Milford CT.
