"I have been working with Dr. Averbach as a surgical technologist for about a year now. After working with 4 other Bariatric surgeons, I can honestly say that he is the best I've seen so far at bariatrics and laparascopic surgery. His office staff has been very friendly and helpful. I look forward to the rest of my experience.rnrnIt has been 8 months since my lap band was placed. It has been a great experience for me, watching the pounds melt away. I am able to do more physical activity and am feeling so much better about myself. i want to say thanks you to Dr. Averbach and his wonderful staff. They have all been very supportive. You guys are the best."
