Im in Midwood Park, and that is near Flatbush. Yea, I think Dr. Gorecki is the main guy there. I think there is only suppose to be one other doctor but I never see him.

I worked as an RN in their ER in the mid 80s. My son and his wife had their Baby there last December, my mom broke her ankle in the hospital doorway on the way to see her great grand baby being born and ended up in the ER the same day. i was not impressed by their nursing care. I hope it is better for you.

I had my son there as well as my surgery, both times I was treated well. I went to visit a friend though, and they forgot a few things that should have been done. I think it just may not be consistent, however from personal experience with other Brooklyn hospitals, Methodist is pretty good. I went with Gorecki because my friend had her surgery done almost ten years ago, and is well. I had one other recommendation. So him mostly sold me. I hear Lenox Hill is good. NY pres is the best hospital in the country. Too far for me though. Im happy.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
