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



Recommended Posts

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.

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.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
