Hey ya'll!!

Hi everyone...newbie here! Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Cari, live in NJ, and just began the process to getting Lap Band surgery. I've got 5 months to go before it can happen and I am thrilled and nervous about this whole thing.

Has anyone on here used Dr. Goyal? My general doctor referred me to him and I've met with him just once. I've done loads of research on him and he seems to be a great doctor.

I'm wishing everyone out there great success on their journeys!!:smile:

Hi Cari, Welcome!!! So where in Jersey are you? I'm in monmouth county myself. I'm in the middle of my 6 month monitoring by my PCP, November is month 6 and my surgery is scheduled for November 24th. My surgeon is Dr. Borao @ Monmouth Medical Center. Good luck with everything, it's an exciting yet nerve wracking process.....

Thanks to you both!

I'm in Newark and seeing Dr Goyal in Hoboken. I just started everything last week and am very excited, but yeah...it is nerve racking!
