I was wondering if anyone has had Dr. Urbach as a surgeon and can give me any information on him. I just recently found out that he would be my surgeon (through the SeamlessMD app). I know things can change one I get there but so far I am scheduled with him for the surgery.

I did some searches on him but they are from 2016 and earlier.

He did a great job on my RNY! I understand from other docs that he is a pioneer and rock star in the world of laparoscopic surgery. Was also very pleasant and thoughtful post surgery and took the time to explain everything to my DH. Very grateful to him and the whole surgical team at TWH.

Good luck to you!

You couldn't get a better Dr. I had an appointment (unrelated) with a local dr. and he asked who did my RNY...when I told him he said oh, you got the Master of RNY!

You won't be disappointed, hopefully that's who actually does your procedure.
