Any Jersey Sleevers?

[Annie B 89]

April - even though I can't find your post to me, I'm responding hoping you will get this. I had surgery on the 19th and have had no complications other than extreme weakness during the second week post-op. I'm feeling good - like I haven't even had surgery. Of course the small amounts I can eat remind me otherwise.

Thanks so much for asking! How are you doing?

did you have to prepare fir the procedure.....?How did you find this surgeon? Id he at Englewood Hospital ? Best to Luck....

No pre-op preperation..I was actually searching for surgeons in my area and this doctor and his two brothers have a practice together, and I didn't want to have the surgery in my local hospitals and found that this practice has right at Englewood, and yes I believe it is Englewood hospital

GREAT I will be using a Dr. Daniel Herron at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhatten.....II once thought of going to Mexico however, after doing alot of Research......that is completely out of the question....for many,many reasons....I have a relative who was going to go to Piedras Negras,Mexico to a dr. guillermo alvarez(he advertised with fancy advertisements) however, my cousin could not go through with the operation since he has a blood issue...he ased for the $1,000 back that the coordinator took on behalf of the doctor.....apparently, this is her finders fee and she will not part with it....what a shame that a medical practice has to be so awful.....people have to be rather diligent in the choice of their surgeon and support staff....it truly means alot...... I hope that all goes well for you...Englewood Hospital has great care....

Thanks...luckily my insurance pays for the surgery. My husband has a government job so we have good benefits. Good Luck with yours.
