Surgeon Testimonial

Robert Wilcox, M.D.
Dr. Wilcox is a great surgeon so far he is very caring and takes his time with you eventhough he has other appointments to get to. He seems to know that this is a time when a person has alot of concern and care and he gives the same treatment to all his patients. He even called last week to reschedule my appoinment and surgery date. I thought that was great. The whole staff is great and just as caring as he is. I just hope the army doesn't transfer him until my care is done. Sally and Marge the receptionists are the greatest and always there for any need whether great or small.

    Yes I agree Dr. Wilcox was amazing! I was hysterical when the nurses were getting ready to take out my drain, I had been fearing it since well before the actual surgery. I was crying and trying to get them to put me under for it... but in the midst they yanked it out and I didn't feel a thing. I guess I was just freaking out for nothing. I was glad to see a few other people that had used him. I can't wait to see him on the 31st for my check up. He does wonderful work! I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!

The worst Day Of my Life
posted on 4/24/07 6:49 am
At 1230PM 04-23-07 Pacific time the door bell rang. I found a women and a man in Green dress uniform. I knew right away even though they could only tell my Husband. It was one thing we always keep in the back of our minds on the two tours of our Marine but I guess we got comfortable thinking that Jeff had survived other attacks and hey MP's are there to protect, Not get hurt or killed. I have more closer today than yestday hoping that the news reports are true, it was fast and painless. But I know also that the news is not always correct most importantly when it comes to stories from Iraq. Well more will come but for now I need to go eat and maybe get more sleep.

THANK YOU TO MY OH FAMILY FOR SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Jenn. I was just looking at Jeff's picture. I work for the Army and immediately went to a friend of mine here, that is an ex-marine. We talked for a little while about what is going on in Iraq. We also talked about Jeff and other young people that are over there. Our organization puts armor on vehicles to help protect our men and women from bombs and bullets. Hopefully, Jeff's CO will be able to tell you enough about Jeff and his mission and his death that you will at least know what he was doing and how he died. I thank you and your family for giving the ultimate gift to freedom. I pray for and thank Jeff for giving his life in service. God bless you. Diane Ulseth

    I am so sorry to hear this. I can relate in a bigger way than some, as my husband spent 2 tours in Vietnam (and 3 in Korea). I was scared all the time. I am so sorry. Feel free to email me JC@ObesityHelp.com or call 207 685 3320. My love is with you and your family and he was and is indeed a hero..
