A native of Venezuela, Dr. Eckstein received his medical degree from the Luis Razetti School of Medicine, before relocating to the United States and completing his residencies in general surgery at the Mount Sinai Medical Center and Maimonides Medical Center in New York.

Bariatric surgery (or weight loss surgery) includes a variety of procedures performed on people who are obese. Long-term weight loss through Standard Care procedures (Roux en Y Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy, and Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch) is largely achieved by altering gut hormone levels that are responsible for hunger and satiety, thereby leading to a new hormonal weight set point. A doctor who specializes in this type of surgery is known as a bariatric surgeon.
Among his various accolades, Dr. Eckstein has been the recipient of the Top Doctor Award in Gulfstream (2017-2019), On-Time Doctor Award (2018, 2016), and Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2018, 2016), and Patients' Choice Award (2018).
