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.

Another TMB Gathering, Another New Name
49 people from the Texas Message Board invaded Sulphur, Louisiana this weekend to visit our beloved CajunGirl and ZydecoMan. While there, I was christened as "Cruise Director Julie" as I feel the need to make sure everyone knows where they're supposed to be and that there's always activities available. We had a fabulous time. I had met a lot of the folks in attendance at previous events, but met Sara M. and her awesome daughter Katie, Nessa, Blane, Loralea, Russ and Kelly, Wendy, Adam and a bunch of others for the first time. It was so much fun. The biggest thing I took away from this weekend is how much my "chosen family" cares for me. You born and bred southern girls are fiesty little spitfires! I'll be sure to never tick you off. I love you all. Thanks for a great weekend. I love it when we sit around on Sunday going through the pictures to refresh our memory of all the fun we had. 2 Comment(s)
