Topic: exercise buddy in Aspen Hill area, Rockville, MD
I am looking for a walking buddy in the Aspen Hill area for my sister.  She doesn't have a car so she would need to walk in her neighborhood.  Thanks! Jana

Hi, I love my surgeon - Dr. Amir Moazzez who is part of Bluepoint Surgical Group at Inova Fair Oaks.  (I know it's not Maryland but close sort of) :-) They have great aftercare.

Topic: Post surgery provider advice, please...
 I was one of the unfortunate patients abbandonded by Dr. Eric Pinnar in Reston, VA.  I have still not been able to find suitable aftercare and am now having real trouble with reflux ( I can't get any sleep) and really need help.  Any suggestions for surgeons in Marylnd that have solid aftercare?  Does Johns Hopkins take good care of patients long term post surgery?

Topic: RE: Exercise Buddy
I could use a workout buddy!  Unfortunately, I am locked in with the YMCA in Westminster (kids going to camp there).  We are somewhat close though, so if you ever would want to meet up and maybe do some non-gym walking, feel free to message me!

 Hi!  I noticed you had Dr. Mo at GBMC!  I'm having Dr. Liao tomorrow morning!  I really love GBMC.
What's your opinion on all of this?

 Thanks so much to everybody!  Yesterday and today have been really tough with just the liquid diet. I added some protein powder to some of the crystal light and that helped alot.  Just came back from The Vitamin Shoppe and got some stuff for after the hospital.  I'm first on the list for tomorrow morning - 7:00 a.m.  I have to be at GBMC at 5:30 a.m.!  

I'll keep you all posted and best of luck to all in your various stages of this journey.

Topic: Exercise Buddy
I have been exercising for a while now and I really love it. The only problem is I can't find a reliable workout buddy ,so I have loaded my MP3 with hot play list and it works but it would be nice to have someone there.  I am currently a member of Fitness Evolution @ Reisterstown Road Plaza and I go after work for an hour or two.  It's my me time and it's hard some times because I work from home but it's my chance for  human interaction so I push my self to go.
So anyone looking for an exercise buddy send me a message.

 Yup Steele was an option. When I submitted my info I didn't select a doctor so they gave my Nguyen and at my consultation he was friendly.
