Surgeon Testimonial Noel Williams, M.D. I met with Dr. Noel Williams of the University of Pennsylvania Hospital. He was very nice and a little funny. I believe he's British. He answered all my questions and was very patient with me. I asked him if this would be the last time I saw him until surgery. He said that I would probably see him around, but unless I requested for him to come in, I wouldn't meet with him again until my pre-op apppointments (2-3 weeks before surgery). During our conversation, he stressed the risks of surgery, the category that I was in (low-medium risk), and the other categories that patients fall into. He drew me pictures and explained most of what would happen immediately afterwards. I haven't had many interactions with him yet, but I would rate him as a 8 on a 1 to 10 scale. I also talked with the Clinical nurse Samatha Warner-Grimsley. She was very nice and gave a lot of information. 1-11-06: After my initial consultation (February), I didn't see Dr. Williams again until 1-2 days after my surgery. He came into check to see how I was. I was very groggy, so he didn't stay that long. I really didn't expected to see the doctor to much because during my initial visit I asked him if I would see him again, he said most likely not until surgery, unless somethings wrong. Nothing went wrong, but I would have like to see him before they put me to sleep before the surgery, but I didn't. Member Interests

March 5, 2008 (Post Op After Pregnancy - 177lbs)
Gained a couple pounds these past couple of weeks. I've been making bad food choices, like desserts and stuff. I have to keep more healthy snacks around me. When I don't have them I reach for whatever I can get quick and it's usually something bad. I finally got my bloodwork done and all my levels were normal. The doc sent me back to the lab again to get a CBC to test for anemia, but it came back normal too. In the end, he believes I have a sinus infection which causes dizzyness and my blood sugar is dropping when I skip meals. Other than the sinus stuff, that's actually what I thought was wrong. I was just having multiple cases of it. I also went to the eye doctor because of the dizzyness. My perscription changed. When they showed the new script compared to the old, I realized that I've been walking around blind for a while now. It was a total difference. So I hope that everything is pretty much normal now. I realized I haven't taken any pictures of myself in a couple of months. I have to post an updated pic soon. 2 Comment(s)
