Sleevegirl1018 30 Posted October 5, 2015 Yes please.They are harder to find than doctors... Dr. James O'Reardon 2250 Chapel Ave #100, Cherry Hill NJ 08002. Phone# 856-482-9000. Tell them you need evaluation for weight loss surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinkgirl1234 761 Posted October 5, 2015 I was just told that he is leaving the practice and they don't give evaluations for WLS Bummer! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
momfromjersey22 403 Posted October 5, 2015 I used Dr. Patel from Cooper in Voorhees. In my opinion, the absolute best! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleevegirl1018 30 Posted October 5, 2015 I was just told that he is leaving the practice and they don't give evaluations for WLS Bummer! It stinks that he is leaving. Yes, he was the only one there that did them. I had a hard time finding him too. The contact that Dr Goldstein gave me didn't take my insurance. I will see if I can find her name for you... Maybe she takes your insurance ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleevegirl1018 30 Posted October 5, 2015 I was just told that he is leaving the practice and they don't give evaluations for WLS Bummer! Also try www.thecenterforemotionalhealth.com. They do pre-op evals and they say they have an office in Central Jersey. Hope this helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SleeveSoon 191 Posted October 6, 2015 I need a psych evaluation for clearance.Does anyone know of any to recommend.I am in central New Jersey. I can go more north or south depending how far. I would highly recommend Jeanine Miles in Marlton (856-797-4805). She performed my psych eval and has had WLS herself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

taramarie523 116 Posted March 21, 2016 i went to Advanced Laproscopic in Paramus and Dr. Schmidt was my surgeon. I picked Dr. Schmidt because he seemed the most down to earth which I liked. The staff is wonderful. Hackensack Hospital had its own bariatric wing for recovery and the nurses were great. Just a very positive experience. How was your experience with Dr Schmidt and his office. I was going threw the process and insurance changed so now I have to switch surgeons. In going to the Advanced Lap seminar at St Joe's this week.
