Hello Im New not banded in Mounmouth County NJ



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, my name is Debbie and have been thinking about getting banded for about a year now. I am ready to really start finding out what this entails. I have been on weight watchers numerous times but always gained it back. Please let me know all you can about this procedure. Where should I go to look for a doctor in Monmouth County. All I have found so far are up north and from what I read I have to see this surgeon alot and I dont want to drive too far from my house. I will search this forum to find out what I can but would love to hear from expierience people out there especially in Monmouth County NJ.

Thanks!:hurray:

Hi Debbbie, my name is Laurel and I live in Ocean county but did live in monmouth county until 5 yrs ago. I used Dr. Washington of Central Jersey Bariatrics, They also go under ESA. He operates out of Bayshore and Centra State. I had my surgery on 12/15 at Centra State. He does have seminars on a regular basis. I went to one in August. I have been happy with all of the doctors that work out of there. If I could answer any questions I would be more than happy too. Good luck to you. Laurel

      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.
