Mentorship Program

At NYBG “People Make the Difference.“ Our bariatric surgeons, the medical weight loss counselors, the nutritionists, the nurses, the hospital team, clinical social workers, screening physicians, the health insurance specialists, physical therapists and fitness coaches represents the most experienced comprehensive group of its kind of any in the United States. To that we like to add one more group: Our Patients.

Dr. Holover and I are truly blessed. We are fortunate to have had the opportunity to treat some of the most compassionate and giving individuals you might want to meet. In fact we would love for you to meet them. That is why a key component of our Free informational seminars is the opportunity to meet successful past patients of our practice. Out of this experience was born our very unique and exclusive mentorship Program.

Mentorship Program

Many patients feel that they wish they had someone who went through the surgery to talk to, when struggling with lifestyle change issues after the surgery especially in the first several weeks. The mentorship program pairs a patient with a previous patient volunteer to provide that resource.
