Horizon NJ Health - Looking for a Doctor in North Jersey



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I have finished all of my requirements with the exception of 2 NUT visits. My doctor is Dr. Neff and is 2 hours away (he's amazing) however I'm really considering someone closer. I have called a ton of doctors out there and they all tell me they no longer are accepting Horizon NJ health or they just met their quota.

If anyone knows of a doctor in North or even Central NJ please advise.

Thanks,

P

Sorry I couldn't help... I would definitely check all of your local hospitals (ex: like mine) and see if the have a metabolic/bariatric program. Most hospitals do and the great thing about that is that hospitals except all insurances!!

What area is preferred or would you travel up to maximum?

Maybe try- RWJ St Barnabas http://www.barnabashealth.org/Specialty-Services/Weight-Loss/Why-Choose-Us.aspx

They have a very similar program as my hospital and should take your insurance plus an excellent hospital.

I am using Dr Michael Bilof, he and his staff are fabulous and make everything so easy. He has offices in Toms River and Millburn. He operates out of either Barnabus or Monmouth Medical. I have Horizon NJ

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
