Dr. Michael Snyder - Great Surgeon!



Recommended Posts

i had my surgery on 3/24 Dr. Snyder and his staff were amazing I'm about a week out. I don't get to meet with him for another week would it be ok to have other liquids that aren't necessarily clear?

If you are supposed to be on Clear Liquids then why would you push it to something that is not. Follow what your post op directions say exactly, you need to heal. If it says Clear Liquids, then don't push it.

well it says to be on clear liquids for like 5 days and then you can go to the 5 foods you can pick from and since i havent seen him i figured i would stay on the liquids but im reading other things that ppl have said they can drink full liquids after two days

I had Dr, Snyder as my surgeon this past Monday. I can't find words to tell you how wonderful heis. I had no pre-op diet, and have not had any gas pains and have not used any of the narctiocs that he had given me. I would higly recommend him.

Had surgery with Dr. Snyder on March 19 2012. It was a wonderful experience. I received a Lap Band with Plication. There was some difficulties with the Plication but he was on top of it immediately. It was mostly just a lot of swelling. He had may stay over night in the hospital and I was watched very closely. I am home now and can't wait to do the rest of the classes. The staff is awesome and I am so glad that I was given all the education in the world to be successful. Dr. Snyder told me he promised he would make things perfect and he really did.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
