I live on Long Island and traveled to DC for my surgeries. No regrets. My surgeons link is in my signature. After doing 5 plastic Surgery consults I realized using a specialist or someone with extensive experience specifically with people who have lost massive amounts of weight is important. I highly recommend Dr. Michaels and I initially did a phone consult. (free)
Dr. Capella is in Northern Jersey right over the GW Bridge. I consulted with him as well. He is also a good choice.
I live near Stony Brook University Hospital and I heard of some people who have used Dr. Sami Khan and seem happy with their results. They all had Empire Insurance and were able to get some of it paid...
I went to a Doc consult covered under my insurance, and was basically told- "IF we could get it covered, it would only cover about $1000 of the Doctor's fee" That wasn't enough to base my decision on.
