Looking for Dr. in Binghamton/Syracuse NY



Recommended Posts

I have been doing the research for several months and I am now looking for a (fairly) local Doctor. I live in Binghamton, NY and I am pretty sure there are no Lap-Band Doctors in Binghamton itself. I am looking to see if anyone has any experience or referrals for Doctors in Syracuse or Ithaca.

I have Empire Blue Cross as my insurance provider, so if you know any Doctors that accept that insurance it would be a big plus.

Thanks in advance,

- Hal

Hi Hlenoble,

My name is Dianne and I've had my surgery back in November by a Dr. Moon in Elmira. They are very nice people and I would recommend him. However, you said in Ithaca. There is a Dr. John Mecenas whom I would have chosen because I live in Newfield but because of my insurance I had to go to Elmira. I have a few friends who've gone to him and really like him. His number is 607-273-3161 if you'd like to give them a call. His address is 1301 Trumansburg Rd. Ithaca, NY 14850. I think that his office is at the hospital - Cayuga Medical Center.

I hope this helps you out. If you would like Dr. Moon's number and address just let me know. Good luck to you Hal.

Dianne

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
