Katherine, you might want to visit the NY Metro Obesity Surgery Support Group (http://www.OSSG-NYC-METRO.org). You're sure to find some info there. They've also got an eGroup email list. To subscribe, send a blank email to [email protected]. You can then ask the list members about their surgeons, and perhaps narrow the field. Good luck!

Hi Katherine: Call the offices of the doctors in your area, and ask to have information sent to you. Most surgeons have an information packet or booklet explaining what they do (which procedures) and why. Then, make appointments to see them, ask for referrals from past patients that you can speak with, go to their support group meetings, and generally learn all you can about each of them before you decide. Finding the surgeon who is right for you is extremely important in this process! And, whomever you choose, chances are that there is someone on this site who has experience with them. Good luck!
