I've decided to do the gastric sleeve
I am 27 and 250lbs. I have decided to do the gastric sleeve after loosing and gaining weight repeatedly in the past eight years. I had a baby about a year ago and my weight just keeps going up. I'm tired all the time, I have little time for the gym along with little motivation. Hopefully my surgery will help with finding my way back to myself. Updated on 24 Mar 2020: I feel the difference in my body. I feel smaller. I can see the weight loss I'm about twenty lbs or twenty lbs

Best Decision Ever! - Huntington, NY
I have struggled with my weight for most of my life. I have had periods where it was more under control but after having children, I spent 10+ years feeling miserable and hating myself. I had a lap band placed in 2011 and hated every minute of it. I didn't lose the weight and wound up feeling even worse about myself. I felt like a complete failure. It wasn't until I saw a friend I hadn't seen in a very long time that my eyes were opened to VSG. She looked FABULOUS and she

Dr. Buchin was awesome spends a lot of time talking to me about surgery what to expect pre and post op. He answers questions thoroughly and precisely. I was very happy that my aunt recommended him and the sleeve. I struggled with obesity my whole life, but with this procedure and following the packet for what foods to eat, I am not struggling lately.

The Best Thing I Ever Did. Huntington, NY
An amazing experience made easy because of the right surgeon. Deciding to have bariatric surgery is a very difficult and scary decision one has to make. And then you need to decide which type of bariatric surgery to have. My decision was made easy because I had the right consultation from the right surgeon. After discussing all available options we decided that a sleeve gastrectomy was the right surgery for my needs.

Dr Buchanan is the Best! - Huntington, NY
No choice for Gastric Sleeve but that is the procedure I had. Dr. Buchin is a very skilled surgeon and his pre-op workup,preop class, support group and nutritionist in his office really prepared me for my surgery. I had no complications whatsoever and have already lost 125 pounds. Also his office staff couldn't be nicer and more helpful.
