Love My Surgeon!
I don't know if there is a seperate place to post this but I figure I'll start here. I am post op August 9, 2006. Any one who is looking for the best most qualified and compassionate surgeon for wls in NJ, please know that I have to say I found him. Dr. Michael Bilof in West Orange NJ is a prince. His staff are angels and his associates are truly all wonderful. I couldn't believe I was lucky enough to find a surgeon who was still able to relate to patients as though they were real living people not just meat to chop. If you are looking for a doctor who still has the elements of human compassion in NJ, I have to recommend Dr. Bilof. I visited 3 different surgeons before I decided with Michael Bilof. It was the smartest thing I ever did. I had scar tissue and other issues that might have prevented me from getting this procedure and I can't believe how well I feel now and the level of after surgery care I received. So far I have lost 45 pounds. I've had one fill and probably will get another next month. I feel great and have lost at least one co-morbidity so far. I know shopping a doctor can be scarey and confusing so that is why I chose to share my experience for anyone thinking about this procedure in my area and visiting this forum.
Good luck to future wls folks and those who have already been there.
