Hi kpenney727! I loved i and not because I'm an employee :)

The staff was great. I didn't experience any complications other than a gas attack. My surgery was on a Monday and that Friday evening prior to I came down with an awful cough. I was on my pre-op diet and didn't bother to ask if I could take anything for the cough. After the procedure the hardest part for me was the pain associated with my incisions and me coughing. Even though they were prescribed I didn't go home on pain meds. I didn't feel as though I needed them.

Dr. Schauer and his resident, Dr. Aminian were great and took great care of me. Dr. Schauer's nurse, Michael, is extremely helpful and full of knowledge. The team as a whole were wonderful IMO, from beginning to end.
