Looking for a weight-loss surgeon who will do a 17 yr old on Long Island
I live in Suffolk county and have a 17 yr old daughter who wants and needs the weightloss surgrey, I have called around and even went to her peds doc and everywhere i call they tell me 17. She is really looking to have the surgery done before the end of the yr . I know she will go through alot of tests and stuff . I myself have had the surgery done a few yrs ago ... If anyone knows of a Surgeon who will take a young adult please let us know......... Thank You
Hey (: I was 15 when I had the VSG, I"m 17 now.
I Just did a google search and came up with this: http://nyp.org/services/digestive/weight-loss-surgery.html --- new york presbyterian aparently does, according to this link: http://obesitymd.org/news_ob.html so you could look into it. (:
I don't know how close the hospital is to you, but it may be worth it.
