Docs in Buffalo NY ?



Recommended Posts

I am newly banded and living in AZ, I will be living in Buffalo part time on and off for the next year or so. Im looking for advice of which doctors/hospitals to use should I have problems that cant wait. Also any support groups that might welcome a stranger? Thank you in advance.

Dr. DiBenedetto has two locations near buffalo..one in Lockport (which is fairly close) and one in Rochester (about an hour away)...i'm in Rochester so I can tell you the affiliate hospital here is Rochester General Hospital...I'm not quite sure about his Lockport Hospital.

His wife runs the support groups and they are both just fabulous! Everyone is ALWAYS welcome and we have some people who travel very far for the monthly support groups...we have someone who comes down from Canada and a few other ladies who come from about 45 minutes away each month. Our Rochester support groups meet the THIRD wednesday of each month at RGH from 6-8pm.

HTH!

Thanks for the information, actually Lockport is very handy, Im hoping that I dont have any problems while I am there but will tuck the information away in case I need it.

I would like to to bring your attention to the gastric band support group moderated at Synergy Bariatrics in Williamsville on the third Tuesday of every month at 6 pm. This is a very popular, topic-driven meeting moderated by a certified bariatric nurse who is also a bariatric surgery patient.

Synergy Bariatrics is directed by Dr. Caruana and there are two other surgeons in the group. Of course, you or anyone else who is interested may attend their support group meetings.

Good luck and happy travels.

Thanks for the info, hopefully I can still find my way around Western NY and remember how to drive in the snow. I look forward to meeting some "Buffalo Bandsters"

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
