"Dr. Capella's reputation preceeded my meeting him. I was well aware of his excellence and experience with the Vertical Banding and gastric bypass surgery he performs at Hackensack Medical Center in Northern New Jersey. His staff is well trained and knows about the surgery he performs. He is a kind man and a qualified surgeon as is his son, who assists him and does the plastic surgery work for the practice. Patients actually take a written test which makes sure that they are aware of the procedure, its risks and follow-up aftercare. There is a support group which meets regularly. So far, I rate him as being one of the best in the country for this procedure with excellent success rates and extremely low complication rates. He performs 7 procedures a week on Mondays. I am now 4 days post op and have a thin scar without any visible stitches (all subcuticular) and will have excellent cosmetic results soon. I lost 18 pounds just lying around the hospital. Dr. Capella and his son visited me daily and gave me instructions. I will see them in one month"
