Dr. Mehta is wonderful. I chose Dr. Mehta after seeing him on TV. I went to the website and researched his practice. I called the office and got an appointment almost immediately. I have struggled with my weight all my life, but when I got in my forties it hit an all time high of 196 lbs. At 5’1″ that was way too much. During the consultation Dr. Mehta explained the procedure thoroughly. He agreed to do my surgery even though I had a BMI of 37. I did have co-morbidities such as Hypertension and High Cholesterol. I was first denied by my insurance carrier but with my primary care’s help, it was appealed and approved. Dr. Mehta’s staff was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions. Lulu is an angel and takes the time to get back to you, when email her almost… immediately. I have only gone to one support meeting so far. I found it very helpful. I will attend more. Five weeks post op and I have a weight of 166 lbs. Having the surgery was the best decision I made. Thank you Dr. Mehta and the Mehta Bariatric Center. And special thanks to Lulu.*
