Hi, my name is Sonia & I'm a 38 year old mother of 2 living in Central, NJ. I was sleeved on 7/22/13 by Dr. Montes of NJ Bariatric Center in Springfield NJ. I was very nervous & wondered if I made the right decision. I even asked God that if this was not for me, please do not let the insurance give the approval. I got my confirmation that I the right thing at my post surgical follow-up. They found Mesothelomia in my stomach lining. Thank god it was benign but regardless I would have had to cut it out. This way I was prepared for losing part of my stomach & never had the worry of finding out if it was cancerous or not. When I found out biopsy results were already back & all was good. Dr. Montes had to tell me in the event it returns. Best decision I could have ever made.
