Anyone use Dr. Daniel Davis, New York, NY or Ridgewood NJ



Recommended Posts

I am considering using Dr. Daniel Davis for my lap band. I have read alot of good things when searching online about credentials. But never heard of anyone's personal experience. I would appreciate any info anyone can share.

I used Dr. Davis in Aug. and I'm very happy. He was recommended by my internist and it ends up that the only other person I know personally who had lapband also went to Dr. Davis. I felt great immediately after surgery. Have not had a single day of difficulty since. Was out walking the next day. You don't really see the doctor ever again after surgery. Instead you see his nurse practitioner who takes care of post op visits and fills. Can't tell you any negatives about my experience

I went to him, in New Jersey and hated his office staff so I did not use him and had it done elsewhere.

Hi There!

I'm scheduled with Dr. Davis on 2/18 for surgery! I have my first meeting with him on 2/11, but his office staff and NP have been wonderful so far!! He came highly recommended from a friend of mine who is a OR nurse at Valley Hospital. Good Luck!!

While my interaction with Dr. Davis only consists of a few phone conversations, I have operated on several of his patients after they lost weight. All these patients have had nothing but positve things to say about him and his staff. I also agree that his entire bariatric team is very professional as well. I have met most of them, because I have spoken at several of his support groups at both Valley Hospital and Lawrence Hospital.

Great info. Maybe I will be one of your future patients, Dr. Schulman, I am leaning towards having the lap band done with Dr. Davis. If all goes well, weight comes off, then I am sure I will need to look at having some reconstructive surgery. I had my first meeting with Dr. Davis' staff (Rodgewood Office). I loved his NP, a real down to earth guy who I felt very comfortable with.

My PCP has referred me to this group of doctors. They seem very nice over the phone. I have attended the seminar. This week I go for my psych eval and support group. Next week I have my appointment with Dory Ferraro. I hope all goes well and that I am almost at the end of the preop and can be post op very very soon. I am so worried about the insurance approval....

Ill keep you posted.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
