Dr. Kruger??
Hi Pat,
We live so close to Boston, is there any reason why you have not checked them out? I live in Taunton and had my surgery at New England Medical Center. They were fantastic. Both the preop and post-op support are great.
I know it is a bit of a drive but it is well worth the effort. They also want you to lose 10% of your weight but it does not seem to be carved in stone.
Good Luck to you.
Sue
thanks for the tip - I have been trying to avoid Boston, only because the follow-up would be difficult (try getting someone to drive you to Logan!!!) but that is my next step if this doc doesn't work for me - my primary has someone she would like me to see and I have some other leads as well.
good luck on your journey!
Pat
Hi Pat,
My name is Sharon and I want to say you couldn't pick a better surgeon. I had my surgery in August. I ended up with complications, not in the Bariatric sugery but in a gallbladder removal and Dr. Kruger was fantastic. He has followed me during my recovery and I have felt very comfortable with him. My complications made it so I had to be referred to Boston and Dr. Kruger set it up and everything went great. He is caring and well versed in the process he was mentored by a Dr. from Beth Israel in Boston. I just want to say that Tobey Hospital and staff are the greatest. I thank them all for their attentiveness and compassion. I can't say enough good about him and the hospital. I am finally on the road to recovery. Good luck and keep in touch.
Sharon
