He does the lapband laproscopicly and RNY by pass laproscopicly. The office number is 757-591-9606. I truely love this man. He has a geniune care for all his patients. Check out his web site and call. Maybe they can send you info. Are you here in VA already? I take it you or your spouse is in the service. I hope you find what you are looking for.

I have heard great things about both Dr. Fontana and Dr. Clark. You can check them out under Find a: bariatric surgeon near the top of this page. I would also recommend checking out the Hospital that each one is affiliated with for surgery. My theory is that you may have a great surgeon but what about the staff? Let us know what you decide and keep asking questions! all the best, Jen

I had my surgery done by Tri-care Prime so I didn't pick a hospital but I had a wonderful expierence at Portsmouth Naval and I love Dr. Chasanet I think that he is GREAT surgeon and man!!!! Good luck finding a great Dr., are you new to this area? Take care, Minette

I had Dr Snyder with Norfolk Surgical Group...I LOVE him!!

I love Dr. Wohlgemuth with Norfolk Surgical Group. In fact, i would highly recommend anyone in that group. They are a WLS Center for Excellence group. Good Luck, Robin
