Gastric Sleeve Surgery

Caring Group of Providers

I recently had my surgery on 11-13-19 and so far so good. Since beginning my journey back in February I have been nothing but pleased with the doctor, staff, and hospital stay. They are truly wonderful! So caring and friendly and always checking up to make sure I’m doing well and staying on track. I highly recommend NYBG anyone wanting to make this type of change in their life.

I Had an Amazing Experience

I had a wonderful experience with this practice. Dr Garber is an excellent surgeon and made sure I was well informed before and after surgery. He is very caring and has a great bedside manner. I would highly recommend Dr Garber and NYBG. Thank you for helping me reaching my goals that I never thought were possible.

I Had Single Incision Sleeve Gastrectomy and It Changed my Life and over a 100 Pounds Weight Loss. Roslyn Heights, NY

I did a lot of research about finding the top bariatric surgeon and chose Dr. Shawn Garber who is the most experienced in the New York area. I also chose him because he was the only one doing the single incision sleeve gastrectomy with no scars. My surgery went amazing and changed my life. I have more energy than ever and can run after my children. I am so glad I had the surgery and chose Dr. Garber as my surgeon. Updated on 29 May 2015: Dr. Garber was the best and changed my life. I had sleeve gastrectomy and already lost almost 100 pounds and feel like a new person. I love being able to run after my children. Dr. Garber is always accessible via email and has great confident bedside manner. The sleeve gastrectomy was the best choice for me. I am never hungry and feel full after small amounts. I have more energy than ever.

45 Year Old Male - 2 Kids - Roslyn Heights, NY

I had my sleeve done on December 17th. The doctor asked me to do the pre-surgery diet before the procedure which resulted in a 15 lb weight loss even before the surgery. As of today. I am down 50 lbs and I feel great. My only complication from the surgery was a secondary infection I developed two weeks after. This resulted in a two day hospital stay. What I can say is that you need to be serious about losing weight and LISTEN to your doctor. It was well worth the time and pain to live a much healthier life. Updated on 19 Apr 2015: 5 months post op and I am chugging along. So far I am down 65 pounds but the weight loss has slowed down to about 5 lbs per month. Still another 45 lbs to go. My biggest issue is finding time to exercise.

Gastric Bypass Was Worth All the Pain and Money - Rockville Centre, NY

I kept gaining weight the more I tried to lose it. Carrying around an extra person in poundage took a huge toll on my psyche, my confidence, my back and knees. I was desperate and fearful that I wouldn't even make it to retirement at the rate I was going so I cashed in my retirement investment and had RNY in March 2009. I will not lie and say that it didn't hurt. It did. The recovery was painful for me and learning to eat again was brutal in my case. I'm still learning over a year later. It's important to remember to pay attention to what you are eating and how you are eating it. After 50 something years of gobbling food, it requires concentration to change that. Gastric bypass surgery is not a cure for obesity but it was the best tool out there and for me, the only way I could reclaim my life. I have indeed reclaimed my life and the added bonus is that I can buy cute clothes and fit in any chair! I've lost 157 pounds and have gone from size 32 to size 12. I'm 5'9. Sure, I need plastic surgery... but I cannot afford it in this questionable economy since I can't find a job. Botox helped a bit. Updated on 12 Feb 2011:
