Surgeon Testimonial

Nilesh Patel
I was very impressed the first time I met him. He is straight forward and to the point. He answers all of your questions but he doesn't make you feel like you're rushing him. He gives these seminars and you meet with him one on one on the day of the seminar. You can also do your psych eval and your nutrition consult all in the same day (if you don't have anything else to do). He does everything he can to get the surgery done for you. He knows a lot about insurance and will tell you everything you need for their approval. He is always available to you. All you have to do is e-mail him and he will get back with you the same day. It's really nice to have a doctor you can talk to if you have any concerns about anything.

What a week I've had
on March 15, 2009 3:46 pm
I was trying to wait until my anniversary to write, but as we all know life happens. About a month ago I started having problems with my gallbladder. I was trying to wait until I built up enough time at work to have the surgery. Well, last weekend I was in soooooooooooo much pain with nausea/vomiting that lasted over 30 hours without letting up at all. I finally took my stubborn behind to the ER. We decided to do the surgery now. Well, turns out that it was not just the gallbladder. Apparently a piece of fatty tissue decided it really didn't want to leave  so it wrapped itself around part of my bowel and cut off the blood supply which in turn caused that part of my bowel to die. So we had to fix that problem and take out the gallbladder. And just for fun, my appendix decided to be out of place. So we took that out too before it decided to give me trouble. I have spent the last week recovering. Feeling much better though.  Just 25 days until I"m a year out. See you then.
