I went to the Celveland Clinic and saw Dr. Schauer.  He was an amazing surgeon.

It's worth the trip - I'm rockin' my VSG!

A warning through - a lot of insurance companies won't cover VSG.  It might be a fight.

My surgeon performs VSG. Dr Edward Cussatti on Long Island.  Great Doc.

There are several in all 3 states that perform the VSG. I'd highly recommend posting on the VSG and the DS forum for this info.

DSers have a VSG stomach, so we have that info available.

I'd highly recommend Dr. Mitchell Roslin in Manhattan. He performs the sleeve Lap, and he has an extremely low complications rate. Plus you'll be staying in one of the best hospitals in NYC (lenox hill). I was almost 500 lbs when I had surgery with him, and had surgery without a single complication.
