Parikh ( Manesh ) at Bellevue ... excellent team and surgeon . They also take all kinds of insurances .
Hello everyone! I'm new here... Just had a question for the Buffalo people:
Who was your surgeon? Would you recommend them to someone else or no? I'm looking to have wls and while I've started the process with one surgeon I'd like to look at all my options.
Thanks!

Hello all,
I am less than one week away from my VSL surgery - as you can imagine I am extremely nervous & excited. My surgery will be on Long Island, but I would like weekly support closer to work. Does anyone have any suggestions for support groups or perhaps therapists that specialize in food issues in Manhattan?
Thanks in advance!
Ok so I am now post op Rouxeny and was able to maintain my weight pretty good until about a year ago. I just found out I have a fistula tract, a hole from my pouch leading to my old stomach which hasn't been used in 13yrs. I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue due to I thought the suture line totally disconnected the old stomach. I had my surgery open at Albany Medical Center.
