"Nice staff, pleasant people, clean facilities. Great! only outpatient surgery but I had no complaints!!!"

Riverside Osteopathic Hospital

"The people were nice, I do not feel that they were well equipped for difficult IVs and people that have hard to use veins. They used a central line on me and i have never had to have that done before."

"ALL THE SURGEONS LISTED HERE TAKE BLUE CARE NETWORK!!! 10/14/02 Just for the record. My plastic surgeon is located in Trenton, MI, and his name is Dr. Bodell. He is a conventional/older doctor but seems to have my best interests at heart, which i find to sometimes be rare in plastic surgeons. Hoping to have another surgery later this year before INS. changes. 5/15/02 Switched docs. Dr. Ledgerwood is in Detroit and is so far away. Found a new doc here in town, Dr. William Bell III. He will be performing my hernia repair on 5/24. :) So far, he is sooooooooo personable, and nice to talk to, listens to what I have to say, etc. In case anyone wants to know, Dr. Ledgerwood was excellent and I would recommend her to anyone. Dr. Ledgerwood is in the Harper Professional Building, by Harper Hospital, Detroit, MI. Her Numbers are: 313-745-3485, to schedule appts, 313-745-4195, fax # 313-993-7729 10/2/01 The only bad things about Ledgerwood and Lucas is there is really no postop follow up care for vitamins, protien, or supplements. But i will go to my PCP when i get the info i need :) 9/6/01 The more I hear about Dr. Ledgerwood and Dr. Lucas, the happier I become!!! Theresa just had her surgery with them in August and is doing marvelously due to their awesome skills. WHHHOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPIEEEEEEEE!!! 8/16/01 Well, after the initial consultation and waiting, i now have a date, and i can make an honest determination about my Physician, Dr. Ledgerwood. I did not want to before because if i was turned down i would not have been happy or nice to anyone, LOL, but this is my opinion of her. She is up front, honest, (to a fault, LOL and the only thing that i really did not like, then again, who does?), and forthright. She explained the procedure and flat out told me that my mortality risk is a bit higher. Approximately 5% because of health conditions. but, she said i am a good candidate for the surgery. I had to look long and hard at my life and decide whether the risk is worth it. YES it is!!!!! Dr. Ledgerwood performs the surgery with Dr. Lucas, who i did not meet, but i am confident enough in Dr. Ledgerwood to trust her judgment. She pulls no punches about this being an extremely risky procedure. Her office staff seems so nice too, especially Celeste. Everyone seems to care and THAT is what makes me feel good! 6/23/01 My first consultation was set in July for the 5th, but they called and moved it up to tomorrow, Monday, June 24th. I am hearing great things about her and cannot wait for my appointment. I have been sticking to my walking routine since May. We will see how far we get :) I wanna be completely ready when the insurance and Dr. give me the ok for the surgery :) I also had my psych eval done already, just waiting for the paperwork to be done on it too.

"Only problem is that his patients get backed up for hours most days. But you can call in from work and they will sign you in, then you periodically call and check to see how soon you can come in. "
