Question:
does anyone know a dr. in .so.new jersey for a second opion?

my fiance had his fist visit w/ dr.colberg on 11/17/99. we were very excited until we heard the anwer. We were told that he was too heavy (552lbs). the weight is mostly around his middle. The doctor said between that and the excessive stress he's under at work,and the sleep apnea he would be too high risk at this time. they stillwant him to do all the test, blood work for the usual and test for diabetes,full cardio workup,ect.. and loose 100lbs on his own, then they will re-evaluate him. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? I don't want his risk to be so high but i really thought this would cure alot of these co-morbitis,maybe i'm wrong. If anyone can give me some imput i would be greatful. We are a little confused at this point. Thankyou. Patti    — patti C. (posted on November 24, 1999)
