With Dr Procter, dr mcguillnpartner. I have lost 23 lbs since the two week prep and surgery.

Congrats on your surgery. How did everything go?

I was really nervous, but the pread at the hospital, precert from Karen went really smooth. The admision day was easy I was there bu the required time, all process in the admision was really fast I felt very comfortable, the nurses and drs were very care about me and how I felt before and after surgery! Overall agreat ecperience, I was walking the same day of the surgery and went back home the next day. Following all indications sharp by the hour!

I'm glad everything went good for you. I think she submitted my packet on fri. I have Cigna ins. Looking at an oct date. How long did the surgery take. Karen changed the pre opt diet a little. I'm glad

I followed the diet as it was lost 16 pounds before surgery, the surgery is 45 minutes, plus 2 hr prep pre surgery plus two hours after surgery in the recovery room.

Dr McGill was my surgeon. He was GREAT. I've been an ICU nurse for 30 years and had plenty of questions. he never got frustrated with me, and always answered my questions and made sure I was comfortable. Karen the dietician was great, she has some great tips for making eating easier after surgery. The staff at Piedmont hospital were AMAZING. Felt like I was the only patient on the unit. I think they camped out at my door and waited for me to need something. Dr McGill even dealt with my crazy mother and family while I was in recovery, and he did it with a smile and never took it personally. He reminds me of an overgrown Opie Taylor from Andy Griffith show. AMAZING doctor. Recently I had a stomach virus and had some vomiting. I had to call the answering service at 7:30 in the morning. Dr McGill called me back within 5 minutes and when I apologized for bothering him; he stopped me mid sentence and told me that was his job, I was not bothering him. Got me feeling better very quickly.
