I have browsed the posts but don't see anyone posting about a pre-surgery diet required by Dr. Burpee. The communication with that office seems minimal and I have a problem getting through and getting answers which is frustrating but I am told that Dr. Burpee is excellent so I hang with it. I wish someone kept closer touch.
I have had all my consultations accept for photos I think and I hope a last visit with Dr. Burpee prior to surgery.
My concern is that Sonja called and said they are scheduling for September 16 and I have not been told anything about a pre-op diet. I don't know if Dr. Burpee requires that or not? Even if he does not, I would like to go liquid for a while before surgery, I just think it is best to shrink the liver, etc.
Does anyone out there know if Dr. Burpee has a pre-surgery diet that he requires? Has anyone else had problems getting through to a person in that office? My concern is after surgery complications and not being able to get through to ask a question if I need to.
Thanks,
Laura
