Cleveland clinic in ohio anyone?

I had my surgery at the downtown campus on April 5th with Dr. Rogula. I hate hospitals and doctors lol but everyone there were so professional and kind that it was a wonderful experience for sure. My doc also did the surgery with the Davinci robot which gave me much faster healing time. I would be more then happy to answer any questions for you. They were great!

That makes me feel so much better!! He is the surgeon I am meetng with. How long was your stay. Anything you can tell me would be great. Im so nervous.

Surgery was friday morning and was out on monday morning. I would have been out on sunday but my intestines were swollen so I couldnt poop lol. Very common but once I started going I was able to start drinking water and popsicle. Walk walk walk! I got up the night of surgery and walked the halls for a while. Everybody there was great. The only annoyance was the people with the sleep apnea machine..I didnt want to wear it cause it sucked bad lol...if you have any specific questions feel free to ask

hi there not sure if you have been on lately but I am having surgery at CCF may 21 with Dr Schauer. Can you give me any info on pre op day? Any other info you think may help as well. Thanks!

I had mine done there with Dr. Kroh. I had a pretty great experience!

@@hellohealthy wow. So cool to meet someone from my area! Can I ask you what did they do for preop? I have preop next Wednesday 10-3? Thanks!

Pre-op was boring - bring a book! I saw the medical doctor, the anesthesiologist, the surgeon and got my blood taken. I was also sent to the pulmonologist for a lung function test the next day. Basically just lots of questions. Nothing too bad at all. It's just your final clearance before surgery.

And I know, small world! Everyone on the unit was great in terms of being taken care of.

thanks for the info I got my schedule of appointments....phew. How are you doing since your surgery?

I'm doing well! Walking and such. Getting bored being at home though lol. Not too much pain, just a little soreness.

I am having my surgery at University Hospital Parma in August. My mom had her surgery at Cleveland Clinic about 3 years ago. She is doing good and has lost a lot of weight. I decided on Parma because I didn;t want to have all of my appointments and required meetings downtown. I just don't like going to the main campus of wither Cleveland Clinic or University hospitals. Now that Parma hospital is part of the University system it really was the best decision for me.

I do know the rusian or eastern european nurse on the bariartic floor at the Cleveland Clinic is very nice. She will take good care of you.
