Smile Nyc?

Noticed no one started a thread for NYC. I had my band put in with George Fielding at NYU.

Anyone else out there?

Hi New Yorkers,
Anyone out there have surgery at Staten Island University? I was banded On April 16. The surgeons and the group are wonderful.

I am hopefully having surgery with Dr. Rosling in Manhattan, NY. My surgery date is not confirmed until we hear back from my insurance company Aetna EPO. Does anyone know how long it will take? I am so nervous.
