Demesvar Jean-Baptiste??

Has anyone used Demesvar Jean-Baptiste from Plainfield and if so can you tell me if he is any good?   I am thinking about having the Lap Band. Thanks for your help

Hello,

Dr. Jean-Baptiste is excellent.  I was banded on June 6 and the care received from his team and Mulhenberg hospital was extraordinary.

 I am going to see him this morning for my second check up.  If you wish you can e mail me personally with any questions.  I will be more than happy to share my opinions and experiences with you.

Clarise, Thank you so much for your reply, I am really scared but I know that I really really want to do this. How are you recovering from your June 6th surgery?  I have my first appt with  Dr. JB on July 5th.  but I will be going to the meeting this Thursday and hope to see you there. Jackie

He is GOD in my eye's. I was banded in January and have done amazing since. His office staff is always there for you. He is the most gentle man and has wonderful bed side manners. Go for it, you won't be disappointed at all....Best of luck...

Sharon, Looks like you are doing great!!  keep up the good work.  Is it hard to follow the diet afterwards? Jackie

Thanks so much for your replies.  I am scared but I am ready to do this and I can't wait.  Is there anything that I should know???  I will be going to Dr. Jean-Baptiste meeting this Tursday night and hope to see you all there.

Dr JB did my RNY on 5/16 and he is the greatest ever.  Very kind and caring, and quite proficient as well.  I recommend him fully.

Both my husband and i had gastric bypass - rny- on 1/31/07.  Dr. JB is an amazing surgeon. He and his staff are so informative and knowledgeable.  My husband and I are so thrilled with the results we  have had since surgery with him.  I highly recommend Dr. JB.

I had RNY done by Dr J-B in November and I think he did an amazing job.  He runs a comprehensive program so you will get excellent care.  I had a great experience.  I have only about 8 more lbs to lose and followed his program to the T.  I have become aware that he does now charge a program fee of $1850.  I did not pay a fee and he accepted my insurance as payment in full.  If you cannot afford the program fee, you may want to consider using a different doctor.  Dr. J-B is an excellent and gifted surgeon and he has an excellent track record but I don't know if I can continue to recommend him because of the program fee.

best program in NJ in my book.staff is very kind to paatients and doc is the best! I was very happy with results
