"My nurse could not find me another gown that fit after my shower. The first gown was perfect, not too big and not too small. After my shower, the only gowns they could find were some XL which were to small and some 8X that were way too big! I tried on about 20 but no luck, I wanted the dirty one back and couldn't have it! lol Bring your own!

"Okay, I don't know if the other comments about my doctor are still here, but I will say it again, HE IS THE BEST! I have to say that of course, he will have my life in his hands! Dr. Naaman and his staff have treated me so kindly. I feel like they really care, and the doctor seems to really like his work. He is a wonderful photographer too, his beautiful pictures from around the world are posted around the office. He spoke to me with a smile on his face, appreciated my questions and was not reluctant at all to answer the BIG ONE about whether or not he has lost any patients on the table. His answer NO, and I can only pray that his honest answer was indeed the truth. I have done all the research about him that I think I can do. HE is very firm about 6 weeks liquids ONLY and reassured me that this was in order to minimize any strain on the staple lines during the healing process. Fine by me! He was concerned about me personally, even offered a picture of my spleen after surgery! His staff is great too. Bernice was sooooo patient with me. While trying to get the money together for my deductible, I was in the office dividing it between credit cards and checks. She didn't seem to mind at all. I am so happy with them!<br>
3/20/02----Okay, my surgery is done, I am healing and I will still say my surgeon is the best! He is so meticulous, he spent about 10 minutes reviewing my file while I was waiting to go into the O/R and I really feel like he is an artist and a perfectionist with what he does. He even "reused" some of my old tummy scars, pretty cool! "
