Surgeon Testimonial

Michael L. Schwartz, M.D.
Dr. Schwartz has been amazing, as well as his staff. They all do a wonderful job at educating their patients. They have a system that works. His professionalism and kindness are reflected in his phenomenal staff. In my initial consult, Dr. Schwartz completed a short assessment and then sat down to talk to me about the surgery I was interested in (RNY). He was very open, honest, and to the point. He answered my questions thoroughly and left the forum open for any additional questions I may have. The next time I saw him was the morning of my surgery. He introduced himself to my family, who also thought he was very kind and professional. Once my surgery was completed, he spoke with them and answered their questions. I had a small issue with a hematoma at one of my incision sites and went to the ER the night I was released from the hospital. I told the ER staff I wasn't going home until I knew what Dr. Schwartz thought. I trust him. That's the bottom line.

And More Emotional Issues...
posted on 5/28/10 8:45 am
I wish I could say my moods have improved, but truthfully, they are all over the place.  I am sad today.  I am overwhelmed.  I have so much going on in my life right now, I can't keep it all straight.  Today, I am realizing that I am spreading myself too thin to make other people happy.  My mom is in town this weekend and has been saying for quite some time now that she'd love to go camping with me and my sisters because she never really gets one-on-one time with us from our families.  So, this weekend, we rented a cabin for a night.  One of my sisters and I can't stand camping or the outdoors.  But I agreed to go along because of the company.  My sister bailed at the last minute.  And I know this sounds so ridiculous - but Im sitting here, I have a paper due tonight that I'll need to finish before we leave today, I have 2 kids that need taken care of while my husband works, and I have appetizers for 25 people to shop for and make for a cook-out tomorrrow.  Yet, Im going.  Believe me I know it sounds trivial and immature - but it's what has set me off today.  And I have realized that my life is out of f-ing control.  My house is a mess.  My finances are a mess.  My health is a mess.  And I dont know how to get control of the reigns again.  And I feel like I have no one to talk to... I feel like no one gets it.  Im afraid of being judged,  so I havent asked for help.  And I feel like I am losing my mind.
