Just Starting Out

Dr. Nusbaum is *FABULOUS* (Ok - I'm slightly biased) :D Really - he's the greatest, and so is his associate - Dr. Bilof. Good luck on your journey! P~ http://www.weightlossnj.com - my story

I have heard wonderful things about Dr. Nussbaum but he does not participate in Horizon BC BS POS so I cannot use him. I am seeing Dr. Goyal tomorrow and am also interested in Dr. Jean-Baptiste after reading his profile and emailing another gal who had the surgery one month ago. I went to an info session for Dr. Bertha. He was not there but his partner was. Their practice seems so large. It is very important to me to find the right surgeon.

Hello Cindi ,my name is Pat Carros and just had wls 8-1-06 .I also have the same insurance.I used Dr.Ballantyne 30 Prospect ave Hackensack,N.J.07601 He is located right in the hospital and also leads the bariatric department.I would not have had surgery if I did not have him do it!!!!!!!!!!!!! His phone is 201-996-2959 PatCarros Wall N.J

I just had my visit with Dr. Goyal today and I must say he is a very attractive man! He seems to know his stuff...he has not lost a patient after over 500 surgeries. He wants me to see a psychologist and nutritionist and suggested two that work for him but charge $125 ea. I would rather go to some covered by my insurance. What do you all think?
