Hi Everyone!

I live and work in Manhattan. I had the Gastric Sleeve done last July 29^th which is almost 11 months ago. I used Dr. Mitchell Roslin at Lenox Hill because of his level of experience and the recommendations I received from other Doctors. Everything went extremely well and I love my sleeve. He did an excellent job as everything (thank God!) has been easy since day one. I am down 87 pounds and it’s just amazing!

I am always looking for support and to talk to others who have gone through this to ask questions and compare notes. If anyone has any questions or wants to talk more just let me know.

i was able to schedule most of my appts within a week. so i knocked em out really fast. i didnt do too much running around. i live in qnz so i chose the gastroenterologist in qnz. but they give u a recommendation of drs that know and work them when you go in for all of the insurance requirements.

Hiiiiiii I just got sleeved on Wednesday 6/17 at NYU! I actually live close to Bellvue hospital.... Not far from the east village. I loved my Dr, Dr G. Fielding. Hospital stay was amazing as well. I was released on the third day. The 2nd day was the worst, I could barely drink anything. The nurses were awesome and always came around and motivated me to walk around the floor.
