Hi All. I'm glad to stumble across this page! Was really looking to do the Lap Band but after talking to so many people I might do the sleeve. Any one in the North New Jersey area that love their doctor/surgeon? I have TWO seminars to go to at different places, different set of doctors. xoxo Mimi

Excellent!!!!!

If your in northern NJ why not go to NYC. I was at NYU. If you have a complication you don’t want to be in a ‘center’ you want to be in a multidisciplinary full hospital.

Hackensack UMC is where many North Jersey patients go. One of the best in the area according to my research.

WELL SO much Drama but surgery was cancelled. Longgg story short: Thursday an abnormal chest x-ray (from DEC) sent me to ER for CAT scan with contrast... walking pneumonia. Antibiotics given. Monday comes and anesthesiologist cancels the surgery due to this, even though chest x ray is now clear. I left and got chest x ray redone and waiting on clearance again so I can have surgery on Monday Feb 5th. Anybody been to Pascack?? Also did this situation ever happen to someone?

Bummer sure hope you're feeling better and get your surgery on the 5th of February. Waiting can be the pits.
