Overall

I don't normally write reviews...

I don't normally write reviews but i was very impressed with Dr LaGuardia. Extremely thorough. Was very impressed with how Dr LaGuardia covered all aspects of my medical history and issues. We had to wait to see him but it was well worth it due to his level of care. Very, very thorough and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Medical Weight Loss
Guideline for the Management of Overweight and Obesity in Adults: A Report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Task Force on Practice Guidelines and The Obesity Society.
Electrocardiogram
An Electrocardiogram is a routine, non-invasive procedure used to examine the electrical activity of your heart. An EKG can provide valuable information about your heart, such as rhythm and size of heart muscle.

Internal Medicine
Dr. Leslie Levenson received his undergraduate degree from Boston University, and his medical degree from University of Vermont in Burlington. He completed a residency in internal medicine and his cardiovascular fellowship at Penn State University / Hershey Medical Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania. He is board-certified in Interventional Cardiology, Cardiovascular Diseases and Internal Medicine.

Ultrasound
A Duplex Carotid Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive procedure used to examine your carotid artery and potentially diagnose problems. It uses high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to obtain images and waveforms of the carotid arteries. The carotid arteries run along each side of the neck supplying the brain with oxygen-rich blood. The ultrasound images will show the structure of the carotid artery.
Computed Tomography
Dr. Kerut is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and the American Society of Echocardiography. He is a Diplomat in Cardiovascular Computed Tomography as well as Transthoracic and Transesophageal Echocardiography. He sub-specializes in non-invasive heart testing (echo and CT) and has a strong interest in preventive cardiovascular care. Additionally, for over 20 years Dr. Kerut has evaluated commercial and recreational divers from all over North America with unexplained decompression sickness for heart or lung shunts.

Plastic Surgeons

Bariatric Surgery
Measurements of body mass index (BMI - ratio of weight in kilograms to body surface area) and waist circumference are used to identify overweight people (BMI 25 to 30, waist circumference of 40 inches for men and 35 inches for women), and obesity (BMI over 30). Weight loss should be encouraged in those with a BMI over 25 and one additional risk factor. As little as 2-5% weight loss can achieve meaningful health improvement, although 5-10% is encouraged. Structured weight loss behavioral programs for patients have the best results, but no particular diet was found to be superior to the others. There is a place for bariatric surgery for those with a BMI greater than 35 and one additional risk factor, or a BMI of 40 or more.
