Dr. Schrope, Dr. Gritsus, Dr. Bagloo



Recommended Posts

I used Dr. Gritsus. He is a very good Dr. His staff is very good. He is very quiet, he doesn't talk much. You can ask him questions and he will answer. You can call his office and he will return your calls. He has 2 offices, one in Paramus (where I go) and in Pequannock. He did my lapband surgery in 2010. All lapband patients come to the Paramus office because that is where the fluoroscope machine is. At the time when I was looking to do weight loss surgery. He was the only one my insurance accepted and the hospitals he does the surgery in are bariatric certified. You need to write a list of questions and then sit with each of the doctors and interview them and pick your choice. See who you feel the most comfortable with. I have heard good review from all three of the Drs. you have chosen. Good luck to you.

Hi.. Dr Gristus did my sleeve surgery and he was excellent. My surgery went smoothly and I healed quickly. I am almost 3 months post surgery and down 60 lbs. I would highly recommend Dr Gristus.

Dr bagloo's office lied to me when they said they take my insurance. The assured me they did several times. I got a huge bill and Reuben the office manager couldn't even figure out why I received a bill as he said also that they take my insurance. I think they are frauds! Reuben acted like a real jerk. Wouldn't return phone calls etc.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
