Surgeon Testimonial

Kimberley Steele
I have been very impressed with Dr. Steele and the staff at John's Hopkins. I must admit the first time that I met Dr. Steele I was a little worried about my husband and I's choice of surgeons. The first meeting was tough and she was tough on us. Looking back now, I know that she just wants to make sure that you are prepared and succeed at this surgery. It was a little longer process than I thought it would be as we had some hang ups with other appointments. I had by surgery on 2/15/11. Dr. Steele was wonderful. She had a great bedside manner. She took time to spend with me when she visited me both days after my surgery until I was discharged. We talked over some concerns that I would have coming home. I would highly recommend anyone in the area that can use John's Hopkins and Dr. Kimberley Steele as their surgeon, to do so. In speaking to others that have used this practice, Dr. Steele has the best success rate of all the surgeons in the practice. I know that I will succeed with this surgery and that Dr. Steele will be there every step of the way to support me.

First Post Op Appt
posted on 2/28/11 6:26 am
Today is my first post op appointment with Dr. Steele. I am hoping that all goes well and she is happy with my progress so far in the last 2 weeks. I am nervous that I have not done well enough and that she will be disappointed with my progress. I am not sure what her expectations are of me and I do need to find out today. I also need to get my measurements from her so that when the scale isn't really moving I can measure to see if the inches are. I don't think my weight loss this week will be anything to write home about, but I guess a loss is a loss, regardless of the number. I need to keep reminding myself of that. I have been working out every day and do realize that muscle weighs more than fat. This could be part of the reason why the scale is not really moving. I know that it will begin moving eventually. I will have to weigh in tomorrow officially to see how much of a loss that I have lost. Update to come tomorrow.
