Surgeon Testimonial Nancy Marquez, M.D. I really liked Dr. Marquez from our first meeting and am continually impressed with her. She's got a great bedside manner and very easy to talk to. Her office staff is pretty good. Jerry is the nutritionist and is always available when I have questions. Joy is the nurse that I usually see when I'm there and she's great. She taught me how to do my B12 injections and has been great to work with. The only person I have issue with is Jenna. Jenna is the patient advocate, and I'm sure her job is not a fun one - dealing with all us anxious pre-ops and our insurance companies while trying to make sure the practice gets the operating income they need, but I found her to be unresponsive at times. She insisted that my insurance wasn't going to cover my surgery even after I received my approval letter and was a lot slower than I would have hoped in submitting all of my paperwork for approval. Because she didn't expect UHC to actually pay for my surgery, I had to put down a deposit of $2,000 for my surgery to cover whatever UHC didn't. The best part of that is I received a refund of $1,927 a few weeks ago. Dr. Marquez places a great emphasis on after care. Seton Hospital provides a support group and all are encouraged to attend. All risks were addressed up front with both myself and my husband. I would rate Dr. Marquez a 10. I had no surgical or post-op complications and found her bedside manner to be excellent.

Where did a month go?
I just realized I haven't had time to update in over a month... Well, lets see, in that month, there's been a holiday and I've been to San Francisco, Houston, Dallas, Austin and New Orleans. Michael was in Chicago for 2 weeks. So, I guess that's where the time has gone. I know I should be used to it by now, but I still find it strange that we rarely go a full week without going to the airport. I think I can whole-heartedly say that December 21, 2007 was my emotional rock bottom. At least I hope that will be the lowest I ever feel. Since then, I've really been working to find a healthier balance in my life so I can be a happier person. It's tiring to be so hard on yourself all the time. You know? New Orleans was a great trip. We had 10 people - 4 we met through OH - go and it was a really good time. I've gotta start getting out the emails to plan for next year. The travel schedule isn't letting up anytime soon. February will take me to London and then twice to LA. (I'm dreading the jet lag from going London to LA.) Phoenix and Boston are on deck for March. I am very blessed to truly love my job (and hanging out in airports  ).
