I continue to be impressed and grateful for the care I receive from Dr. Buchin and his team at LI Obesity Surgery. I have been a patient for years and the care goes far beyond the office visit. Dr. Buchin has referred me to his excellent network of practitioners for both routine care and specialists. Dr. Buchin even surprised me by checking in on me in the ER when he heard I was there for an injury. It is rare to find a doctor and team so dedicated to the whole welfare of their patients so if you have the need, I highly recommend making an appointment.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Buchin for several years now, and I have nothing but great things to say about the entire experience. I originally came to him for bariatric surgery and had the sleeve procedure. Since then, I’ve also had liposuction on my arms and laser treatments on my face and neck — and I truly couldn’t be happier with the results. I’m so grateful for how I look and feel today. Dr. Buchin is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also extremely personable. He takes the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. I also want to highlight how wonderful the entire staff is — from the medical team to the front desk. Everyone is professional, kind, and responsive. If you ever have a question, they get back to you right away. I have nothing but positive things to say about the whole process from start to finish.

I went on Google and looked up a great place to get the surgery and I’m glad Google directed me to this place , the staff is very friendly and my doctor ( Dr.Godwin) was such a nice fellow who reassured me of all my questions and worries. I went in there weighing 264 lbs and in just 4 months I weigh 178lbs! I feel great! Best decision I ever made in my life. If you’re reading this I hope this helps you make that decision a little easier. Take that step and go with this office, You won’t regret it.

UPDATE: a little over 18 months post op, after losing half of myself (and feeling great), I was looking into cosmetic options to address some loose skin. Thankfully, I had the opportunity to have Dr. Buchin, Dr. Godwin, and team perform the BodyTite & Morpheus procedures on my abdomen. This minimally invasive alternative to plastic surgery is a GAME CHANGER. Less than a week later, I feel fantastic, can already notice a significant difference, and know that the best is yet to come as my body continues to tighten and heal. If you want to be taken care of by the best in the business, look no further than Long Island Obesity Surgery. In addition to the talented doctors, the staff makes you feel so well taken care of. Thank you Helene, Lacey, Jessica, Daniella, and Christina for being so wonderful. Looking forward to continuing my BodyTite & Morpheus journey on other areas of my body and celebrating my success! ORIGINAL: After 7+ years of carrying around 100+ extra lbs and 2+ years of dealing with chronic pain and declining health, I decided to take the step in pursuing bariatric surgery. I was referred to Dr. Buchin by my pain management doctor and from the 1st visit through to my most recent appointment at 6 months post op, I couldn’t be more grateful for him and his entire team at Long Island Obesity Surgery. If you want to be set up for success, look no further than this group. They are there to answer any questions you have, support you along the way, and celebrate your success. Down over 100 lbs to date, this was the best decision I ever made for myself and I feel like I have a whole new life ahead of me with their help and guidance. Thank you Dr. Buchin and Long Island Obesity Surgery!

Dr Buchin has to be the Best bariatric surgeon out there. I had two umbilical hernia surgeries in the same location prior to seeing Dr Buchin including one surgery in NY presbyterian hospital that was botched. I went to see Dr Buchin in Huntington hospital, Not only did he correct the prior surgeries but he fixed my hernia for good I have returned to my normal life. He has Changed my life I am overweight & the hernia has not comeback and I work a physically demanding job I am considering a bariatric surgery that I would only do through him.

I started my journey March of 2023 with my first consultation appointment. I have struggled for a good few years now with weight loss, and I would diet & exercise, weight would go down, but would unfortunately fall off the wagon due to my work schedule, home life or personal issues such as stress & depression. It was time for a change, and let me tell you, it was the best decision of my life to get the surgery. I could not recommend any place better than Dr. Buchin & the staff at LI Obesity Surgery. The entire staff from Dr. Buchin himself, to the nutritionist, Patti, & all the nurses were very helpful & knowledgeable with your nutritional needs, that will help you succeed. My surgery date was August 2, 2023. My weight at that time was 281lbs. Today, as I write this well deserved 5 Star Review, I am now at 198lbs. That is 83lbs down from my surgery weight. Oh, yeah if you have medical insurance, they do require you to loose weight prior to the surgery, and from March to The surgery day, I lost 27lbs, so from that weight loss, plus the post-surgery weight loss, that is 110lbs total! This surgery, this tool works. You have to do the work yes, but this surgery is not at all a cheat. It is a very helpful tool to help you gain your confidence back, your energy, your youth pretty much. I have never felt happier & healthier in a long time, and that is because of the staff at LI Obesity surgery. I have a second chance of life now. I feel different but better each and every day. Look no further than LI Obesity Surgery. If you are unsure, get a consultation appointment with them ASAP. You will not be sorry. Thank you Dr. Buchin, I am a better man because of you.

Had several issues with insurance until I finally got my surgery done in September 2023. Surgery went great, doctors are super professionals and I had great recovery. I lost tons of weight and keep losing. Doctor Buchin is definitely one of the best surgeons. But my experience with their post surgery care was not as good as I expected. Last post op appointment I had, I was waiting for 2 hours, which was unusual but also annoying. I wish they would tell me to come back another time since I live right around the block. It was disrespectful and I felt like there is no consideration for people who got their surgery done. I was also hungry/about to pass out and luckily had a snack on me. Later that day doctor Buchin called me to apologize, which was appreciated. I never had any problems with them before. They’re always thorough and helpful. The only thing I would suggest if I could, is that in the future please communicate with the patients if you think it might take longer than expected and if possible leave a little basket with emergency snacks for the post op patients in case that long wait happens and we’re not prepared.

I had gastric bypass 5/1/23 with Dr. Godwin, it’s been 6 months since my surgery and i’ve lost 100lbs. Before considering weight loss surgery I was weighing 302 (316 at my heaviest) pounds and I was miserable, had very little energy, was struggling with my blood pressure, cholesterol, and many more health issues. Now I’m 200lbs and I feel better not only physically but mentally. My blood pressure is now normal with no medications, PCOS is well controlled, and I never thought I’d have this confidence ever. I’ve struggled with my weight since I was a little kid and I’ve tried so many diets and workout plans and nothing seemed to help me, it would work at first then gain it all back. This surgery has taught me how to have a better relationship with food. It’s taught me portion control, and healthier choices, but not to deprive myself of the things I enjoy because I can enjoy them in moderation. I hope sharing this helps someone know that there is hope and not to give up on their journey to a healthy lifestyle. And to not be terrified of getting or considering the surgery, with the right doctor and the right mindset you will be successful in achieving your health goals. I am forever grateful to Dr. Godwin and his team for helping me change my life!

I recently had the privilege of being under the care of Dr. David Buchin, MD, for bariatric surgery, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional experience I had. Dr. Buchin's professionalism and expertise were nothing short of remarkable. From our very first consultation, he made me feel at ease with his in-depth knowledge and clear explanations. Throughout the entire process, he demonstrated a level of compassion and genuine concern for my well-being that went above and beyond what I expected. His surgical skills are truly top-notch, and I have experienced life-changing results thanks to his talent and dedication. Furthermore, the entire office team at Dr. Buchin's practice deserves immense praise. They were always welcoming, efficient, and highly responsive to any questions or concerns I had. The office itself was impeccably clean and well-maintained, creating a comfortable and reassuring environment for patients. And of course, the most incredible part of my journey was the outstanding result of the surgery. Dr. Buchin's work has transformed my life, and I couldn't be happier with the weight loss and improved health I've achieved. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. David Buchin and his team to anyone seeking bariatric surgery. They provide a level of care and professionalism that sets the gold standard in the field.
