Karla, does your doctor have a back up plan for when he leaves? If not Dr. Aranow over at Middlesex has a great reputation and is very experienced. My doctor is Craig Floch, and I couldn't be happier....best before and aftercare you could want.....plus his practice is very responsive......One thing to consider in choosing your doctor is the long term.....is his/her office and support groups close/convenient to get to There is a support group at Middlesex Hospital....preops and post ops the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Mondays of the month at 6:30.....I have been going there even though my surgery was in Bridgeport.....good luck......PM me if I can be of any help.
