Charlotte residents, should I change from Dr. Pirello to Dr. Heider?



Recommended Posts

Dr. Pirello has all my records in, but all could be faxed to Dr. Heider. I keep hearing that folks think highly of Dr. Pirello, but he was *very* rude to me, and cold. I think it must be me and that he just doesn't like me for some reason. I'm concerned he won't do as good a job with me as he has with others. I've heard Dr. Heider is *very* warm and friendly.

Would you change?

worried,

Good evening! I was sleeved by Dr. Heider this past Thursday and I think he is an amazingly skilled doctor and very friendly. I do not know if you have met him yet, but I am sure he would be glad to meet with you and discuss any concerns you have and hopefully will put you at ease. Good luck to you!

Hi All,

I am looking to start a support group in Cornelius, NC. I own a coffee shop in Cornelius and am looking to host an evening for both those you are about to have surgery and those that have already had it. I had surgery in Mexico and find that I am falling off the wagon so to speak, I just think it will be good to swap idea's and stories. Anyone interested please let me know.

Thanks,

Charlie

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
