He is chief of bariatrics at good Sam. He is a wonderful dr. He's done hundreds of sleeves. Revisions as well. His number is 631-587-5800.

It looks like you are doing great with the sleeve. Anything you regret? How llong have you had it? What made you choose the sleev over other surgeries?

He's the head of bariatrics at good samaritian hospital in west islip. He definitely doesn't favor one over another. He holds a seminar with your options and tells you the positives and negatives of each and goes into detail on each surgery. I suggest you go to a few seminars at different places and see which surgeons you like the most

You all are very close to me! I'm in NJ and using Dr Nusbaum in Livingston, NJ. He did my band and will be doing my band to sleeve. I love him and the office.

My husband and I used Dr Vulpe in Staten Island. He was great and his office staff is too. They run an excellent program. I highly recommend him!

To the Jersey City Member,

I live in Orange County New York but after research chose Dr, Edward Pucci. He has offices in Ridgewood NJ. I had my surgery at Englewood Hospital. They were wonderful, he was wonderful, his staff are wonderful. I feel lucky to have found him.

He is in a practice with his two brothers, Anthony and Richard. I have met them all and they are all very nice and helpful.

It may be worth checking them out.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
