"This particular stay was not pleasant in only one respect. Being overcrowded, I was on the pediatric floor, not general surgery. I was sharing a room with another bariatric patient that was very ill and need a lot of attention and I did not get the rest I needed."
"My first impression was just wonderful--I had seen a video of her on a TV talk show, and I had seen her web site, so she looked familiar already, but her demeaner, her attitude and friendliness was just wonderful and relaxing. I made a big impression on her and the staff too by putting together a packet of info and pictorial history about myself and it blew them all away! They wanted to know if I would mind if they used it as an example to show others....
I am feeling that I am very very lucky to live in Libertyville, Illinois and near Dr. Leslie McClellan and Condell Hospital. She has a whole program for aftercare and bi-monthly support meetings.
Will report more after surgery."
