Personal Comments
I am 36 years old, been struggling with my weight for the past 10 or so years. I lose and gain so frequently. I had the Lap-Band surgery done on 10/4/04.
Surgeon Info:
Jerzy M. Macura M.D. (Brooklyn, NY)
I met Dr. Macura a week before the sugery, he was very nice in explaining everything about the surgery to me including all the risks.
The day of the surgery he came over and talked with me to reassure me everything will be okay.
The only thing I wasn't impressed with was post-op he had his team come see me in the hospital and he only came to see me once for 2 minutes.
His office staff has been great, they have been so helpful in getting my surgery approved answering all my questions, etc.
I think Dr. Macura is a very skilled surgeon I just wish he would spend more time with me.

I had no problems dealing with them. I was approved immediately. I just had a co-payment of $250.
