Horizon NJ Health - Looking for a Doctor in North Jersey



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I have finished all of my requirements with the exception of 2 NUT visits. My doctor is Dr. Neff and is 2 hours away (he's amazing) however I'm really considering someone closer. I have called a ton of doctors out there and they all tell me they no longer are accepting Horizon NJ health or they just met their quota.

If anyone knows of a doctor in North or even Central NJ please advise.

Thanks,

P

Sorry I couldn't help... I would definitely check all of your local hospitals (ex: like mine) and see if the have a metabolic/bariatric program. Most hospitals do and the great thing about that is that hospitals except all insurances!!

What area is preferred or would you travel up to maximum?

Maybe try- RWJ St Barnabas http://www.barnabashealth.org/Specialty-Services/Weight-Loss/Why-Choose-Us.aspx

They have a very similar program as my hospital and should take your insurance plus an excellent hospital.

I am using Dr Michael Bilof, he and his staff are fabulous and make everything so easy. He has offices in Toms River and Millburn. He operates out of either Barnabus or Monmouth Medical. I have Horizon NJ

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
