Topic: RE: WLS in Orange or Westchester County
Thanks so much....I wonder of your doctor is still affiliated with them. There is one surgeon at Crytal Run named Dr. Hamdi and before him they were referring patients to Dr. Weissman?? and the name Tri-state bariatric did come up. Which hospital was your surgery? Mine would be at Arden Hill. It's good to see someone local becuase I have gone to Westchester and NYC but I fret traveling 1 plus hours for a follow-up etc.

My surgeon was Dr Peter Kwon in Middletown. He is in TriState Bariatrics at the end of Crystal Run Rd. I had lap band surgery 2 1/2 years ago. They also do RNY. Great office, great staff and great follow up care.
Let me know if I can help in any way-- good luck to you-- jtraverse

Topic: RE: WLS in Orange or Westchester County
I didn't use Dr Cerebona but I went to him for a consultation. I would definitely recommend him. He couldnt' do my surgery since mine was very complicated and I had to go to a surgeon that had experience with my particular case and he didn't. I had prior reflux surgery called Lap Nissan Fundoplication and it had to be reversed in order to do the RNY. Dr Cerebona had never done this and I didnt' feel comfortable using someone doing a procedure for the first time. If I was just having the regular RNY, I definitley would have used him.
I went into NYC at Columbia Presbyterian I am loved my surgeon. If you are willing to go into NYC, he is the best.

Great so far..Started off with 1/2 cup of Fiber One Cereal and Skim Milk. Had a Greek Yogurt for mid morn snack. Followed by Chike Chocolate Shake for lunch added a banana, Sugar Free Instant Jello Pudding (cheesecake flavor). Interesting combination but very yummy.
Cleaning up my basement had some water come in due to all the rain we had. How many calories do you burn from mopping?
