Surgeon Testimonial

John W. Baker M.D.
My first impression of Dr. Baker was not very good, I thought his personality was very brusque and not friendly at all. But, during my stay in the hospital Dr. Baker was awesome...he was very friendly, answered any and all questions. He was also very congenial to my family and friends who were there with me, and answered all of their questions as well.rnrnHis office staff is just awesome, wonderful people...the only thing is they tend to be a bit unorganized and have problems staying on top of things unless encouraged frequently by patients.rnrnDr. Baker has STRICT instructions for his preop and postop patients, and his patients have been extremely successful following these plans! They really aren't that hard.rnrnOverall, I am extremely glad I chose Dr. Baker and would definitely reccommend him to anyone.

All about me and my journey

It's been forever since I've posted....and I haven't been on OH as much b/c I've been SO busy with nursing school.

Things here are going great though!  Just working and schooling and working out when I can.

I went for some lab work at my pcp's office and he said all my levels were normal except my liver enzymes are still high, but the good news is...they are a lower high than they were the last time...so yipee!!

I've been experiencing some bad luck lately....on Monday my car broke down, then this morning my Computer broke.  The computer was an easy fix....the car, still not sure bout that.  I am waiting to hear from my dad on that but he said it might just be easier to buy a new car than to spend the money fixing the old one.....we'll see...

I am posting some 3 month pics....well they are technically 2.5 month pics but whatever.....:-)

I love you all and I miss you!!!  64 lbs down....it's a great thing....
