I don't know whether or not he accepts Cigna, but he is my PCP and he is very WLS friendly... plus he's a terrific doctor. Dr. Russell Gross of Colts Neck, NJ (732) 431-4555. You can mention my name when you get to see him. Nancy Williams

Hi Loteal. I had my surgery done in Central NJ. My PCP was excellent - very supportive. Actually, he has been the best Family Doctor I've ever had. His name is Jabbar Zafar, and he is in Plainsboro. I don't know if he accepts your insurance or not, however. Good luck to you!! Kevin

Dr. Charles Jeck in Mercerville, (Hamilton Township near Trenton) was very supportive of my WLS and gave me all the referrals and pre-op tesing I needed. He's thrilled with my weight loss too - lap/rny 4/13/01 down 82 lbs. I had my surgery in Hackensack NJ with Dr. Hans Schmidt who was also excellent.
