Dr. Brett Cohen - He's Awesome!



Recommended Posts

Dr. Cohen did my Lap-Band surgery and he is simply amazing. He makes you feel at ease and explains the ins and outs of what to expect after surgery. He is very accessible should you have any questions.

The office staff are also great! They are very accommodating and they are willing to go the extra mile to help you.

I also like the pre-operative and post-operative support that was provided.

I went into surgery will prepared with the right info to help me succeed.

I am thinking of having the surgery done with Dr. Cohen, I have never had any kind of surgery and I am kind of going based on word of mouth. I am just scared to pick the wrong Dr. because of all the horror stories..!

I totally understand your hesitation. This surgery is a big deal. You're having someone cut into you so it's something you should approach with caution. Dr. Cohen is awesome...I'm about to hit my two year anniversary and I'm very pleased with my results...over 105lbs lost and counting. As I've said before, they really prepare you for the surgery and life afterward. Do your research and make the decision of what's best for you.

If I had to do it all over again...I would in a heart beat!

I was banded by Dr. Cohen in October 2010 and I agree with everything the other member said. He is so nice and accessible and his office is very big on support and educating the patient.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
