Ragui Sadek MD, FACS Bariatric Surgeon Director of Bariatric Center of Excellence, RWJUH

I recently had the gastric sleeve procedure on December 10, 2014 and I must say that I am extremely satisfied with my results so far and the treatment of care that I have received. I would recommend Dr. Sadek to anyone that is considering any type of weight loss surgery.

There are times in a person's life when you need to rely and trust someone else to see you through the "fork in the road". Everyone at ABS made me feel comfortable. Working with Shielah was a true pleasure as she had all the answers that I needed and that is a big part of relieving the mental stress you have when you are embarking on a life changing procedure.

Thank you all, your experience is comforting.

I have found the statement, "when the student is ready, the teacher appears." so very appropriate for my experience with gastric sleeve surgery. I could not have asked for a better surgeon. Dr. Sadek was professional and compassionate from my first step on this journey, which was the door to his office. I cried from relief when he said that he could help me. Tears don't usually come easy for me but this weight has negatively affected my life for far too long . I will be forever grateful to God for leading me to Dr. Sadek, Shielah (<3) and all the staff at Advaced Surgical Bariatrics of NJ.

Surgery went well , post op day7 , well prepared by the staff for surgery .

I love Dr. Sadek best experience def recommend him to everyone
Who's considering surgery

I love Dr.Ragui Sadek he is the best, Everthig was great he made me feel very comfortable,he kept my family informed every step of the way and treated them great as well, it was always direct contact with him his self, people I spoke too told me they had a lot of pain post surgery with other doctors but whith Dr.Ragui, I'm up waking talking and moving around with very little to no pain and I am very happy to have had him as my Doctor

Doctor Sadek is an excellent doctor that is a perfectionist with his work and cares about the overall health of his patients. I felt absolutely confident in his abilities to perform my surgery and provide me with awesome after care.

Dr. Sadek is probably the best bariatric surgeon in the tri-state area and is definitely very highly recommended. He understands all your problems, has an answer to everything, and also takes as much as needed to listen to everything you have to say. From my first appt. with him the whole process between then and my surgery took less than 2 months. I am now one month post-op and probably as normal as it can get. Also a very big plus are is vitamin and protein shakes that have the pre and post op essentials that are needed instead of taking a bunch pills, which wont leave any room for you to even eat post-op. I can almost guarantee you will not find a better surgeon!

The nicest doctor, ever! All questions were answered, he listened to my fears and concerns and he was able to put my mind at ease. My whole process from start to finish, took less than 2 months. I am now 9 days post op and I had not one problem or issue with my Gastric Bypass surgery. I love Dr. Sadek for helping me get my life back! I no longer take Diabetic medicine nor do I take any high Blood Pressure Meds. Life is amazing to be medicine free!!! I am forever greateful to you Dr. Sadek and your staff. Everyone is so helpful and so nice to speak with. I recommended many people to you and I will continue to do so. I am thrilled with the way I feel and I am starting to see a new, thinner, me!!! I could not ask for more!! Thank you, so, so much!!!!

I had Gastric Bypass Surgery on March 12, 2014. It has been almost 5 mths since my surgery and I have lost 86 lbs....and I'm still going to continue!! Dr. Sadek has not only saved my life, but has also given me a fresh start to a new and healthy lifestyle. I would have never been able to do this without him. He has been the best doctor through my weight loss journey (always taken the time to talk and answer all of my questions/concerns and has called me back right away when I have reached out to him directly). The office staff has also always been very kind and helpful when I've called and been to the office. I give him a 5-star rating for all of his services. I would highly recommend Dr. Sadek as a weight-loss surgeon. I am so thankful for him!!
