I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. Hans Schmidt in Hackensack on October 8. The man has impressed me totally and I am totally confident. Of course, I can't wait till its over.. scared and nervous, but knowing that the Lap surg is the right thing.

Dr. Benotti in Ridgewood. A little further away for you but well worth the trip. You can e-mail me for more info.

I had my surgery with Dr. Joseph Kamelgard at University Hospital in Newark. I HIGHLY recommend him. His staff is excellent and I am 3 months out with not one complication. The hospital staff is excellent as well. Here is his website and please feel free to email me with any more questions. http://www.theuniversityhospital.com/otc/html/theobestitytreatmentctr/index.htm

Dr. Capella in Ramsey, NJ. I can not possibly give him a high enough recommendation. He has the most experience in the field of WLS, 22 years. I had no complications at all, he and his son (his son is a plastic surgeon) are great, attentive doctors. Dr. Capella has been featured on 20/20, the View and in Elle magazine. Checkout his website at www.drcapella.com Good Luck! He is the BEST!
