Hi everyone, my name is Niky, from NYC (living in the Bronx). I'm 31, SW 286, CW 280. Getting sleeved by Dr. Belsley, he's affiliated with St. Lukes/Roosevelt. Has anyone been sleeved with Dr. Belsley? I started the process with Dr. Yatco at Lennox Hill, but my mom suggested I check out Dr. Belsley as she knows someone who works for him. I went in and LOVED how they treat you, but in the back of my mind I'm wondering if I should still stick with Dr. Yatco. Just wanted some opinions. Thanks :)

No, I have one more weigh-in to attend next month, and a few other pre-requisites.

I had my surgery with Dr.Yatco. His practice is the best in the city. Google it.

I know, I went to his seminar and met with him already. Did you have to wait long after you got approved for his surgery? I heard he was booked months in advanced

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      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.
