chilepeppr4 29 Posted November 17, 2015 Hi! I'm just starting out and I will be having my surgery at Winthrop hospital. Just wondering if anyone has used this group. My dr is Dr A. Barken. I'm going to my primary dr to get a weigh in tomorrow and see if we can back track a few months. I'm in southern Nassau county if anyone is looking for a buddy Lisa 1 FutureSleever01 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom26 313 Posted November 18, 2015 I'm Lisa too -- and in Long Island. I had my surgery in NYC though. Is your doctor part of the group with Dr Brathwaite? He's a fantastic surgeon. Good luck!! 1 FutureSleever01 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Purplej 20 Posted March 31, 2016 Hey Lisa! I'm from South Nassau and, guess what? I had my sleeve surgery on March 8th at Winthrop Hospital with..........wait for it..............Dr. Barkan!!! The surgery went extremely well. No complications and I'm 3 weeks post-op and feeling great! You should be close to your surgery, if not already.
