Hi all! My surgery is scheduled for Monday, 3/6 with Dr. Onopchenko. Anyone from New Jersey that has had him as a surgeon? I feel like he's very easy to converse with and ask questions. So far so good anyway. I'm not sure how he is with aftercare.

I should have mentioned that he is in the Egg Harbor Twsp /Atlantic City area

How did it go? I haven't done the surgery yet, still doing the pre-op work up. I have Dr Samir Patel at the same office.

both surgeons are excellent. Dr. Patel remove my lap band and did the gastric sleeve two months ago. After care in that office is excellent. Dr. Patel is doing my wife's gastric sleeve next month. You can go wrong with either of those surgeons.

Dr. Onopchenko did my sleeve on March 6th. He was awesome. His entire team and office staff are great. I've never been so impressed by any medical staff as I was worth them.
