DR. Yatco NYC

Did anyone in here have their surgery done by DR. Yatco from nyc if so how was it. thats who i want to do my Sleeve

I had him do my vsg and he is the best.  He's very understanding, actually listens to what you have to say, explains everything, and is a real sweetheart.  His staff is great, they did almost everything for me.

Good luck!

thank you so much for answering my question. I did meet him once am waiting for insurance approval... just need to ask him about hair lost the next time i see him

He did some other surgery for me and I felt he was very nice and competent, however the nurses at LHH are a nightmare. Think, a ward of Nurse Ratchetts 24/7/365. Best thing IMO (besides having surgery elsewhere) is to have assertive family by your side to keep an eye on them. Good luck!

thank you so much for the heads up on the nurse..... have a bless one

Dr. Yatco is amazing.  Very experienced, attentive and personable.  My bestie is revising from the lapband to DS with him.  She loves him so far too!

The nurses in the barriatri****il of LHH were utterly amazing!  They were extremely attentive as well.  I think that a hospital's  Bariatric Center of Excellence Rating is contingent upon nurses ratings (among other things).  My bestie is in the healthcare industries and told me this.

thank you so much for the input
