Why don't you call his office and get an appointment,ask for the package of pre requirements so you can have it all done before you see him for the first time..You need to have an endoscopy to rule out H-pylori a psych evaluation and you need to see a nutritioist

Dr. Gagner is considered one of the best in his field. I am seeing one of his partners. There is at least a two month wait for any of them. Be prepared for the horror of his office though. His office staff works fro the Mount Sinai hospital, not for him. I find they dont return phone calls too well and if you have a problem email the doctor at osso-nyc-metro.org or at surgicallyslim.com. Trust me, the doctor will get back to you. When you call they will sent you a packet of info and if you plan it right you can arrange to have all your testing done the day you come up for the initial consult or have them done locally. Just have patience and Good Luck
