Hi! I am scheduled for my VSG with Dr. Vadim Gritsus at Valley Hospital on 8/3. He and his office staff have been just fantastic!! I saw him last year too but I wasn't ready.

Two years ago I saw a Dr. B. at Hackensack and I was NOT impressed. Experienced but horrible attitude - "Don't come back until you know which surgery you want to have"! I was like, no, I'm just not coming back... VSG wasn't an option with him so I'm glad I waited!!

Dr. Gritsus has answered every single question of mine with patience and respect. His staff is polite and their goal is to make the process as smooth as possible. They will refer you to a psych and nutritionist if you don't have your own, and they are on the ball as far as working with insurance to get preapproval.

I just joined so I don't know if you've posted since this - where are you at in the process now?

Good luck!

I am in NJ and I just had my sleeve done on 8/6/12 with Dr. Trivedi at Hackensack Hospital. Feel free to ask me/inbox me any questions. I am VERY happy with my decision.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
