igr1017 0 Posted September 27, 2008 I used Dr. Borao out of Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch. I can't say enough about their program and the team they have working there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaculin412 0 Posted September 27, 2008 igr1017..... OMG you are the first person I have seen on this site that has used Dr. Borao. My surgery is scheduled for November 24th and Dr. Borao is my surgeon. I have gone to a couple of the support meetings and their program is very well run. You're a year out, how have you done so far? Any advice to offer? I am so looking forward to this. Where i Jersey are you? I'm in west long branch....... :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
