HAS ANYONE HAD SURGERY BY HIM? ANY INFO IS GREATLY APPRECIATED....IN SEARCH OF A NEW SURGEON I JUST FOUND OUT THE ONE I WAS GOIN TO IS OUT OF NETWORK AND IM MAD BUT LIFE GOES ON...THANKS IN ADVANCE...

Hi Irene, I can't say enough about my doctor. Dr. David Ward at Allied Surgical Group of Morristown. They do the surgery at either Somerset Medical Center or Morristown Memorial Hospital. Dr. Ward does all the LGB's and his partner Dr. Mclean does all the Lap Bands. You can find all their info just to the left of this page, under "Other Message Boards - Dr. Ward's Patient Forum." Not sure where you are in NJ or what insurance you have, but hopes this helps some. All my best, Jen

Hi Irene, I see you have BC/BS. I used Dr Garrison out of St Michaels in Newark and couldn't be more pleased. Check him out.. He also operates in Denville at StClares. I really had a great experience. Donna

HEY MA I WAS WONDERING DOES YA SURGEON DO TUMMY TUCKS?? I LIVE IN TRENTON NJ BUT I HAD MY WLS IN NEWARK WIT DR. DUCHEINE ON SEPT 21ST.......BUT DR. DUCHEINE DOESNT DO TUCKS. I NOW HAVE LOST ALMOST 150LBS AND MY STOMACH AND ARMS ARE HANGINNNNNNN...HAHAAHAHA

AND I WAS ALSO WONDERING DOES YA SURGEON TAKE HORIZON MERCY MEDICAID??

Sorry I don't know the answer to either of your ?"s,,, call his office at StMicheals... they are really nice.

Dr. Abkin in Morristown/Florham Park has my (and my husband's) vote. The man is truly a life saver. Take a peak at the last entry on my profile. All the best as you start your journey! Sherri

Sherri, I agree, Dr. Abkin has our votes also. I just love this man I wish I could have him as my Dr. for everything. He is my hero for sure. When did you have your surgery and how are you doing? From another member of the Abkin fan club... Hugs, Fran

Another vote here for Dr. Abkin. He's so awesome...and cute to boot!
