Opinions on docs and offices, need new surgeon
Hi fellow RIers,
After moving back to RI from MA, I think I'd rather get a new surgeon/team than travel back and forth to the cape for appointments. Covered by my plan are ::
Amaral, Joseph F., MD
Cioffi, William G., MD
Harrington, David Tobin, MD
Ng, Thomas, MD
Who has had these docs? Are they pretty good? Have good teams and offices? I'm almost 4 years out and am working hard at both getting on track again, and also hope to work on making a family, so I feel I need to consult with someone in the know for post-ops.
Any information would be much appreciated!!

All four of those docs are part of University Surgical in Providence. I don't think Amaral is doing much bariatrics any more. Cioffi is a trauma surgeon. Ng I believe is vascular. Harrington is bariatric. Also part of University Surgical is Dr. Dean Roye and Dr. Beth Ryder. I adore Dr. Ryder. She trained with Dr. Roye whom I've heard is equally terrific.
