VSG in NJ
Hi All,
Does anyone know of an experienced surgeon who has done a lot of sleeves or even a lot of DS? I'm currently looking at Dr. Greenbaum in Willingsboro and Dr. Dobruskin in Freehold(the only info I have on her is from her webpage. It says she is experienced with the VSG, but I don't know HOW experienced). Does anyone have any info on their reputation and experience with the VSG?
Also, are there any sleeve patients out there who have gotten the VSG covered by their insurance, even if their insurance only covers rny, ds and lapband?
Thanks!
Leah
I have consulted Dr Gagner, Pomp, at NYP, Hurron at Mt Sinai, about 6 doctors in NJ who sent me to NY for the DS, Its really easy to go to the hospitals there and they are the teachers of wls for just about all of the doctors.
I cannot have the rny or lap that is why they sent me to NYP, the experts.

still pre op, put the wls when I lost too much weight in 206,didnt qualify, and wanted to correct my heart condition, a fib, surgery for that was 12/2006, but enough weight has comeback to qualify me again, and I want to cure the diabetes 2.
Dr Antone, one of the developers of the Ds, is also a endocrinologist, and does revisions like surgery which I fall under. so I will travel to Omaha, actually easier than going to NYC, and only 300 bucks airfare. so no problem. insurance is pending since 1/15/2008, so any day now maybe.
