Dr. Alexander Abkin and Nicholas Bertha were voted TOP DOCS for Bariatric Surgery in NJ for a third consecutive year by New Jersey Monthly Magazine. (2007, 2008, 2009).
What differentiates their work from others is an approach that is not just about surgery and healing wounds, but also about thorough preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care. Weight loss surgery cannot be looked at as a standard surgery. It’s a life-changing procedure. The relationships the physicians develop with patients are much longer term and much more intense.
Their practice, opened in 2001, is recognized as a Center of Excellence, as sanctioned by the American College of Surgeons and the Surgical Review Corporation of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. Innovative treatments, such as endoscopic procedures (ROSE), single incision surgery, and participation in industry clinical trials for new obesity treatments are a foundation of the commitment exhibited at ALSOM. The doctors are also directors of bariatric care at Saint Peter’s Hospital in New Brunswick, Saint Clare’s Hospital, Dover, and Holy Name Hospital in Teaneck.
Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeons offers new patient seminars every week in Florham Park, New Brunswick, Teaneck, and Mount Olive, NJ.
