Question:
Are There Any WLS-Friendly PCP's in NYC [UWS-Manhattan]?

I've been seriously considering WLS for some time. Since I've lost my hubby to cancer this April, I truly need to take care of my needs now. I live in NYC; the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Can anyone out there suggest a WLS-friendly/empathetic PCP [that they have been to] in that region that is taking new patients? If they are affiliated w/ Columbia Presbryterian Hosp. that would be gr8. I like their reviews. Any helpful response help me get the ball rolling. Thank you so much!

J, I am six weeks out from lap rny. I use Dr.Daniel Davis in Bronxville, NY. He is affiliated with Columbian Presy. I only had to wait two months from the time I first saw him to my surgery date. For this area thats pretty good. Look into the obesity center at Lawrence Hospital in Bronxville. Maureen
