Elmer Valin
"I have my first appt scheduled for 9/24/01. Let you guys know how it is going.I visited Dr. Valin today 9/24/01.He was very nice and his secretary was real nice also he explain everything to me.He told me what I would have to do before and after surgery .I would rate him a 9. His office could be in a better place and a little nicer. I had my appt with the nutritionist,and with the pyschologist. they both gave me the ok. I did my diet and I am waiting 2 call my docter tommorrow 2 see if the test was fine.Then hopefully I can get insurance approval. I called dr office today my ketone test was fine.I am now scheduled 2 have my 2nd appt with Dr Valin on 1/24/02. I hope everything goes alright. The Dr's office has moved I hope it is nicer.1/24/02 It is in a nicer building! It looks alot better. I ve got a surgery date also 2/05/02. I can't wait we decided to go with open instead of lap because of religious reasons I cant take blood.He said it is a lesser chance of needing blood transfusion, he can take my blood and recyle it in the same room,if necessary so thats cool. well my surgery got put off till 2/12/02 . I had my endoscopy yesterday it was like i fell asleep and it was done. im disappointed about the date change though but a week isnt bad. I GOT APPROVAL FROM INSURANCE!!!!!!!!! That was a big relief."
