Hi Coffecup,

I'm not banded yet, (waiting on insurance approval), but I use South Jersry Bariatrics. I have doctor Wasser and he has been great so far. They have a website, you should check it out. WWW.southjerseybariatrics.com. They are located in Willingboro. If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message.

On Steff's advice (among others) I'm using South Jersey Bariatrics as well. Called last Monday and had an appointment with Dr. Ing on Friday. I've looked into several programs and had consultations with a few surgeon's in PA and NJ. SJB is my final choice.

More of central Jersey, but I used Dr. Mehta in New Brunswick, NJ. I was banded 9/10/07 and absolutely love him, it's well worth the drive. www.mehtabariatriccenter.com His office staff is amazing, friendly and very supportive of WLS, the 2 women also are patients of his at/or near goal.

I was banded Aug 5th by Dr. Balsama in Stratford NJ Kennedy Health

he was awesome and the whole staff and everyone I had to deal with was just great.

Hi! I, too, used South Jersey Bariatrics. I had my surgery in October 2006 by Dr. Wasser. He also removed my gallbladder in September 2007. I feel like I couldn't be in better hands! Both he and Dr. Ing are just wonderful, caring doctors. Come to one of our orientation meetings - the first Monday of the month, 6:00 pm, at Lourdes Medical Center, Willingboro, NJ just off of of 295N, exit 47B. All three surgeons in the group are there (Dr. Greenbaum doesn't do lapband) and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

So you go to the group meetings.....I never checked any out I should come it would probably help allot. All the things that go though your mind. My Dr. was Dr. Balsama.....I am so glad I went to him and Kennedy it was the best also. lol

I will have to try and come to one. Thanks
