Drs in Florida

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Fusco in Florida (melbourne) his staff is wonderful alot of insurances pay, after surgery they do weekly fills until you are where you need to be , you have access to their cell#s for questions and problems they have all been wonderful. I have lost almost 30 lbs, banded 3/14/06. Good Luck

What part of Florida do you live in?

The Cleveland Clinic Bariatric Department is where I am go now. I had my surgery in Brooklyn 4 years ago, but moved to Florida 3 years ago. The Cleveland group in Weston, FL is good. I like them better than the group that was involved with my Lap-Band® installation surgery.

I will be having my surgery done by Dr. Levine at Coastal Bariatrics in Ormond Beach (near Daytona Beach, FL). You can find his website at www.CoastalBariatrics.net . He has taken some time off because of a death in the family but will be back to performing surgeries soon. I have had a friend who was banded by him 2 years ago and she is very happy & looks wonderful. Dr. Levine was the only one in the immediate area that did the surgery for a long time but now there are also MD's at Halifax Medical Center in Daytona Beach that do the surgery. I don't know their names but you can look them up at http://www.hfch.org/hmc/ . I hope that this helps for info on the East / Central coast of Florida.

Hi,
I had my band done in Tampa... My Dr is John Detrick. Great guy. Very good physician. I work with him in the OR. I'm a surgical assistant at University Community Hospital. I have worked there for 9 years. He has just started the Surgical Weight Loss program at the hospital and boy has it taken off.... This guy is very compassionate and kind. I liked him when I met him. The nice thing about the program there is it is all inclusive. You see everyone there in that facility. You will see the psychologist, dietitian, exercise physiologist and of course the surgeon. Its was so nice not having to run all over town making these appointment. I know I sound like I'm trying to sell this program but it was a great experience and I just wanted to share that with everyone. You can also go to www.uch.org and that should direct you to that program. Good luck with your quest. Thanks Steve
