Question:
Re-Post: Anyone have Dr.Derrick Martin in Dayton,Ohio!

Sorry I had to re-post this but I e-mailed some people w/ no response, and i only have 9days til surgery!!!!Those who had Dr.Martin: does he use staples,steri-strips or glue for the incision? Have drainage tubes? How long was your scar? Were all tubes put in and taken out while you were asleep? Any specifics he has you do the day before surgery? And what are his post-op diet phases like?    — Sunny4x4chick (posted on June 29, 2002)

sunny, if this dr martin is the same doctor that works with dr fallang in middletown, i am sure he does the procedure the same way. dr fallang did my surgery 4 months ago. i was stitched on the inside, and then glue was used on the outside of my incision. my scar is about 4" long. tubes are put in and taken out while you are asleep, and you have no drainage tubes. no specifics the day before surgery, just no eating or drinking after midnight, and the first 2 weeks post op are clear liquids only. i wish you lots of luck, youll do just fine. april
