Surgeons in south jersey...?

[Riane226 0]

I have NJ Medicaid BC/BS HMO. I was wondering is anyone has any suggestions on surgeons. I am considering Dr Slotman in Cherry Hill. He is part of the Lourdes Medical Associates. But i havent seen him mentioned on this site at all! I have seen Dr Abkin/Dr Bertha and Dr Balsama mentioned a lot. Any suggestions...?

I used Dr Bertha and loved him and the entire staff. they do performed surgeries out of St Peters in New Brunswick but that is as far south as they are. their office is located in North Jersey - Florham Park.

I would recommend going to the seminar for all the doctors you are interested in and pick the one you feel most comfortable with. I went to 3 different seminars before I decided.

I didn't know Dr. Slotman was now doing the lap band. I know many people have used the south Jersey Bariatric Group at Lourdes in Willingboro for lap band. (Dr. Wasser and Dr. Ing).

You might want to check them out. I think they have open support group meetings once a month. I've not heard of the others mentioned.

Wishing you all the best!

Regional Surgical Associates out of Virtua Hospital in Voorhees is fantastic. You may want to check them out if you are still looking!
