Read2016 658 Posted April 4, 2016 Hi All, New to the form, glad to have such a great place for info. Have an appointment with this Doctor in hopes of having sleeve surgery. Compared to other doctors not much about her on Google. Would love to hear from anyone who has had the surgery with her.

Pinkgirl1234 761 Posted April 4, 2016 I had the lapband with her at the time 15 years ago .It was my decision to go with the band .She performs all WLS procedures.I just had a revision to RNY in December 2015 but with a new surgeon. Very competent Doctor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WLSResources/ClothingExch 3,444 Posted April 4, 2016 She isn't my surgeon, but I know and have known a number of people who had lapband done by her. They all have positive things to say. I was impressed by her when I attended an NYU info seminar at which she was the surgeon-of-the-seminar. The fact that I ended up having surgery at Columbia had nothing to do with her. She still has affiliation with NYU, but I'm don't know its nature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
