Anyone use Dr. Daniel Davis, New York, NY or Ridgewood NJ

I am considering using Dr. Daniel Davis for my lap band. I have read alot of good things when searching online about credentials. But never heard of anyone's personal experience. I would appreciate any info anyone can share.

I used Dr. Davis in Aug. and I'm very happy. He was recommended by my internist and it ends up that the only other person I know personally who had lapband also went to Dr. Davis. I felt great immediately after surgery. Have not had a single day of difficulty since. Was out walking the next day. You don't really see the doctor ever again after surgery. Instead you see his nurse practitioner who takes care of post op visits and fills. Can't tell you any negatives about my experience

I went to him, in New Jersey and hated his office staff so I did not use him and had it done elsewhere.

Hi There!

I'm scheduled with Dr. Davis on 2/18 for surgery! I have my first meeting with him on 2/11, but his office staff and NP have been wonderful so far!! He came highly recommended from a friend of mine who is a OR nurse at Valley Hospital. Good Luck!!

While my interaction with Dr. Davis only consists of a few phone conversations, I have operated on several of his patients after they lost weight. All these patients have had nothing but positve things to say about him and his staff. I also agree that his entire bariatric team is very professional as well. I have met most of them, because I have spoken at several of his support groups at both Valley Hospital and Lawrence Hospital.

Great info. Maybe I will be one of your future patients, Dr. Schulman, I am leaning towards having the lap band done with Dr. Davis. If all goes well, weight comes off, then I am sure I will need to look at having some reconstructive surgery. I had my first meeting with Dr. Davis' staff (Rodgewood Office). I loved his NP, a real down to earth guy who I felt very comfortable with.

I am considering Dr.Davis myself, out of his NY office. My first appointment is 3/4, wish me luck!

Hi Vikki,

I just read your post and have an appt. at lawrence today with Dori (I see you're meeting your surgeon today but not sure where) My surgery is at lawrence on 5/14. I wish you the best of luck! I see you're from the Bronx and I'm in Yonkers...if you want we can keep in touch.:biggrin:

My PCP has referred me to this group of doctors. They seem very nice over the phone. I have attended the seminar. This week I go for my psych eval and support group. Next week I have my appointment with Dory Ferraro. I hope all goes well and that I am almost at the end of the preop and can be post op very very soon. I am so worried about the insurance approval....

Ill keep you posted.
