WHERE IS YALL SURGERY IN JERSEY???
Hi Cozette,
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers, sounds like you are doing research on surgeons, that's what I did also. After doing your research and talking to others who can share their experience, strength and hope with you, follow your gut as to which surgeon that you feel is most qualified and that you feel most comfortable with. I prayed about my decision and listened closely for the answer.
If I can be of any further support give me a holler.
Hugs,
Fran
Hi Cozette,
I went to see the same Dr. in Orange first off let me say I waited in the office 2 1/2 hours before I even saw the man......Then after he went over things with me he then told me that he didn't know if he would be doing my surgery at all because he is in the middle of dropping my insurance (uhp, hmo of medicaid) He was a very nice guy, but I need aDr. that can guarentee my surgey...so I also posted a HELP message here and this WONDERFUL woman Fran told me about her surgen in Florham Park named Dr. Abkin, so I called and they take my insurance i go to there seminar Sept. 9th and get things rolling...I'll tell ya i have not yet Dr. Abkin yet but I already feel much more secure with him, this is what he specializes in the Dr. in orange is just a general surgen, when i was in his offic eI was the ONLY one there for this surgery.. Well good luck in wich ever dr. you choose.....
