Possibly choosing Dr. Cussatti, West Islip, NY

I am possibly choosing Dr. Cussatti, West Islip, NY for the sleeve.  Pros and Cons?

Hi Fran, I am from Long Island too. While I didn't use Dr. Cussatti, there are several people in the support groups I go to who have. Both groups have FB pages and you could post a message there. Long Island Post Operatives (LIPO) and S.C.A.L.E. - Second chance at living everyday. They are great groups to be a part of and you can go pre-op as well. I believe Heather who leads SCALE may have used Dr. Cussatti.

I used Dr. Ahmad and Dr. Angawala out at Mather Hospital. I have no complaints and they have quite an operation there with good follow - up, support groups and Licensed Dietitians. Dr. Ahmad is a part of all surgeries, and I like that you always see a Doctor in follow-up visits. I've heard in some offices you see a P.A. or N.P. 

Good Luck!
