Lester Cooperstone
"I first met with Dr. Cooperstone in the beginning of Jan. 2001.I can't say enough about he and his office manager Fern! They both made me feel very comfortable and were a delight to meet. He THOROUGHLY explained everything - he doest either Vertical Banded Gastroplasty or VBG with a Gastric Bypass. He was very thorough in going throughthe pros and cons of each, the hospital stay and aftercare and addressed the risks of the surgery. He did this in about an hour to an hour and a half -never seemed rushed - made sure I had asked questions. He DOES have group support meetings, the first Wed. of each month from 6-8 PM at the Syosset Hospital in Conference Room A. He suggested I attend one to see what his other patients are saying about him, i.e. " I love him, I hate him " etc... I went back for my follow-up consultation on Jan. 29 2001 - I was given a quiz on what was discusses at my consultation & then we went over the quiz. My Insurance company approved me today! I have decided to have the gastric bypass and it is scheduled for March 13, 2001~"
