I’ve had one procedure done with him and I can say that it was the best experience. The staff is very helpful and kind when scheduling appointments, verifying insurance. Very welcoming environment from the moment you walk in the door. The office is clean, organized, and I’ve never had to wait more than 5min to be seen. I would recommend them to anyone! Best practice!

Thank you for sharing your experience, Roberto! We're glad to hear that you feel comfortable and confident after meeting with us.
Fantastic experience: This is going to be a long one, lol My surgeon was Dr Harvey Rainville. He and his medical team deserve thanks, flowers, and more for what they've done for me. I have struggled with my weight due to trauma and depression for almost my entire life. I was finally ready to make a change but was hesitant and a little terrified. Dr Rainville recommended I have gastric sleeve surgery, which is a reduction of your stomach, for those who don't know. He and his office/team reassured me during the entire process leading up to my surgery date, especially whenever I expressed my hesitation and fears. Finally, on the surgery day, Dr Rainville came to see me briefly before I went in to encourage me one last time. Then, as I was being wheeled into the operation room, I found myself becoming a little overwhelmed and kind of went into a minor panic attack. The team was right there for me, comforting and reassuring me that everything would be alright. The next thing I knew, I was waking up from the surgery, which was honestly painful, as to be expected. Due to having sleep apnea, I had more trouble coming out of it, which was one of the complications. I remember crying like a baby because of the pain but I also remember the medical staff was still there at my side the entire time, someone was rubbing my back and shoulder reminded me that they were there for me and they were going to take good care of me which they did. Truthfully, my anxiety was my worst enemy when recovering from the surgery, haha. They rightfully kept me in the hospital for about 48 hours to monitor me but discharged me when they felt I was good to go home. I was very hesitant to go home because I was nervous that the pain and complications I had would happen when I left. But I'm sitting here now, four days post op and I can hardly tell I just had my surgery. Besides general soreness, I feel completely fine. I have not felt this good in such a long time, not just physically. I'm in a much better mindset. I am on my way to greater confidence. Dr. Rainville and his medical team did an amazing job not just with the surgery but also with caring for me as a patient and person. I doubt I would've been able to be where I am without their moral support. I recommend NY Bariatric to anyone looking to become a better version of themselves, and I HIGHLY recommend going with Dr. Rainville.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ballem was compassionate and empathetic. I have been battling with my weight for the past two years, being extremely critical of myself.

Thank you Patricia!
Negative experience: This particular office is horrible, I can’t speak for the other locations, since I see good reviews for other offices. It left such a sour taste, I decided to try a different group. Front desk Staff try’s to force you into programs you don’t even need and have no knowledge to explain the differences between programs and what you’re paying for. They almost over charged twice for a service and I caught on to it. Dr. wasn’t the best either, not clear on what the procedures are, I felt I had to dissect the answers out of him. I went 3 visits before I called it quits and went to another bariatric group. Avoid this office.
I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with that particular office. It's frustrating when there's a lack of clarity in communication and issues with billing. We would like the opportunity to discuss further. Please reach out to [email protected]. Thanks in advance and we look forward to resolving this matter.
Fantastic experience: First entering in, they are very professional and courteous. Not a long wait and doctor straight to the point and answer all my questions. Love!❤️ the practice

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad to hear that you found NYBG to be professional, thorough, accurate, and timely.
Negative experience: Got a consultation here specifically for a laceration of the lower eyelid that I have. I gave a great description ahead of time, they were great with fitting me in early. Which now I realize may have not been a good sign. However, I called them back multiple times about whether or not my insurance would cover my consultation or any other work, they never got back to me. I apparently have to pay the full amount. I also called back to see if I should get my stitches taken out sooner to avoid scaring. I don’t know who give me the response to have them taken out, but on the day of my apt I found out Dr. Shafquat was never notified!!! Additionally, I had the consultation just for Dr. Shafquat to tell me that I needed to see an OCULAR plastic surgeon. The visit also seemed quite rushed. It seems like a cash grab when a provider, knowing the reason for your visit, recommended me seeing a different doctor during the visit instead of suggesting before my visit. It’s not like they refer you to anyone else, you have to do all the work yourself. Don’t go here. Only have 2 stars because the man at the front desk was trying his best and seemed very caring. Thank god I only got a consultation here instead of being used for more money on getting my stitches out. Huge management issues here!
I'm truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at the clinic. It's crucial for healthcare providers to communicate effectively, especially when it comes to insurance coverage and referrals. It seems like there were several breakdowns in communication and coordination during your visit, which can be frustrating and concerning for any patient. Your feedback highlights some significant issues, such as a lack of responsiveness regarding insurance inquiries, a last-minute recommendation to see an ocular plastic surgeon, and a rushed consultation. These issues can certainly lead to a less than satisfactory experience. It's positive that you acknowledge the efforts of the front desk staff, as they can often play a crucial role in patient satisfaction. However, it's clear that there are management and communication problems that need to be addressed at the clinic. If you haven't already, it might be worth sharing your feedback directly with the clinic's management or through an online review platform to help them improve their services and prevent similar issues for future patients. Additionally, you may want to consider seeking a second opinion from an ocular plastic surgeon, as recommended by Dr. Shafqat, to ensure you receive the appropriate care for your condition. Again, I'm sorry to hear about your experience, and I hope that you can find a more satisfactory and reliable healthcare provider in the future. Your health and well-being are essential, and you deserve the best possible care.

Negative experience: Today would be the third time that I walk out without being seen for vitals. I had a follow-up appointment today (post gastric sleeve surgery) I have been dealing with the Glen Ridge location for quite some time and it is always the same unfortunate situation with them. THEY HAVE ZERO SENSE OF TIME PERHAPS NO ONE REALIZES THAT EVERYONE'S TIME IS VALUABLE. I am often left over 30 minutes in the waiting room & this is just unacceptable. I ALSO HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT JOB, and I take my 30 minute lunch break in vain, to only wait in a room an additional 20 minutes to see a PA. I've just about had it with this office. Dr. Naveen Ballem preformed my surgery and I think he is a wonderful surgeon, so if following up after surgery is important at all- please note that until I can personally see Dr. Ballem himself, ON TIME, I WILL NOT RETURN TO THIS FACILITY.
I'm sorry to hear about the frustrating experiences you've been having with the Glen Ridge location and the delays you've faced during your appointments. It's understandable that your time is valuable, especially considering your important job and limited lunch break. It's disappointing when medical appointments don't respect your schedule. It's great to hear that you've had a positive experience with Dr. Naveen Ballem as your surgeon. Your feedback about his professionalism and skills is important. It might be worth communicating your concerns directly to Dr. Ballem or the office manager, emphasizing the impact these delays have on your work schedule and overall satisfaction.
Fantastic experience: Everyone from the nurse I wish i remembered her name to the receptionists were very pleasant. Dr. Gohil was extremely informative and patient. I look forward to my continued care. The office atmospher is also inviting.

Fantastic experience: I recently had a bariatric procedure done by Dr Rainville. The duodenal switch. I am more than pleased with the way Dr Rainville has cared for and spoken to me each and everytime we have interacted. I have also had great experience with Dr Ballem and Carolina and Enrique. I cannot forget the entire office staff on NJ route 23. They were wonderfully informative and helpful. If you ever have doubts or fears of bariatric surgery then you haven't been to NY Bariatric offices at all. Thank you to everyone that helped me along my journey to get rid of diabetes type 2 and shed some weight too.
