Hi Tom Welcome to our Ct Message Board!!!! How is your sister so far? We all here are praying for your sister since we heard about her surgery. I am also Dr Aranow's patient. He is so wonderful and I do trust him when he will do surgery on my stomach. Read my profile. Please email me [email protected] if you have any question about our support group in Middletown or this processing. I will be happy to help you . I hope to have this surgery this October. Kathy K
