Surgeon Testimonial

Steven C. Poplawski, M.D., F.A.C.S.
My first impression of Dr. Pop is that he scared me, we were a couple of minutes late and when we came into the meeting he said well your late! But it only took a couple of minutes to determine he is very nice. His office staff have all been very nice. So far there is nothing negative he has been very nice and helpful. He was very forthcommiing with the possible complications, did not scare me but made me think. Overall on a scale from one to ten he is so far a ten. I am still preop so I hope he is still a ten after surgery. Both competence and bedside manner are important, if I had to pick just one I would want competency over bed side manner.rnrn

Time to start
posted on 3/16/08 11:54 pm

Well I decided to start trying to lose some weight before surgery, I am hoping that perhaps I can lose some of the fat on my liver prior to surgery, Dr Poplawski did not tell me to lose any weight, but I want to.  I am going to spend the next couple of days on liquids my stomache has been bothering me and I would like to see if not having solids will ease the pain, I am still waiting to hear from OHIP, my doctor should be faxing my application back tomorrow with the additional information that they wanted, I am going to drive them crazy until it is faxed, it has been a little silly dealing with them, it just has not been very professional.

Well bye for now. My current weight is 289.9lbs, I bought a new scale so I can keep better track

Kim
