Recommended Posts

I am in the beginning stages of this process and was wondering if anyone has gone to Dr. John Angstad from NY Bariatric Group?

I have gone to NY bariatric group and seen Dr. Angstadt while I was in the hospital right after my surgery. I had Dr. Garber as my surgeon. All I can say is the whole group there are terrific! I go to the support groups at St. Charles with Dr. Angstadt he is great and very supportive. I have lost 34.5 pounds since April and now also going to a personalized gym which Dr. Angstadt also attends. Love the whole bunch..feeling great and happy...good luck in your journey. Highly recommend them.

Best of luck with your surgery. How long did it take to get your surgery date?

Not very long. They scheduled me and then heard the ok from the insurance company about 5 business days later. I had a 6 month monthly weigh in to do for my insurance too.

I already did the 6 months weigh in with my own doctor. I have BCBS do you have the same?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
