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

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
