South Nassau Communities Hospital (COE)
"I think this hospital is tops as far as having bariatric surgery there. One of the directors, who started the program, had bariatric surgery there. I think that that, in itself, is a good thing."

Rajeev Vohra
"I was very impressed with Dr. Vohra. I attended an "educational" conducted by a nurse from his staff. She was very well informed and explained the entire procedure and aftercare. I also attended a support group. I was surprised to see the ENTIRE staff at the group meeting: dietician, physician's assistant, Dr. Vohra himself, his nurse and his office assistant. I then had the consultation visit with Dr. Vohra at his office. Again, it was mandatory that I meet with ALL of his staff one by one during this appointment. I am presently in the process of having the numerous tests required by Dr. Vohra. The scheduling of the appointments is a bit tedious, especially if you work. It is difficult to get appointments early in the morning or late in the evening. But most of the doctors recommended by Dr. Vohra to perform the tests, were "courteous" to Dr. Vohra's patients and scheduled the appointments in a timely manner. I think it would be so much more helpful if they could just check you into a hospital and perform ALL the necessary tests at one time. Or, since hospital room cost is a factor, have a section of these doctors all at one site. Dr. Vohra has a structured aftercare program. As I am still pre-op, I am not too familiar with the program. I do know that you MUST meet with the dietician and you MUST have an exercise plan. "
