Surgeon Testimonial

Andrew Averbach, M.D.
I first met him at the orientation for the surgery and he seemed okay. I later met him for my first consultation and he was very open and constantly asked me if I had any questions. Made me feel like he would be there even for the dumb questions.
The office staff have been wonderful. They always have a smile on there face and my first time there this one cute old lady that works there stoped me and asked me about myself and what kind of surgery I wanted. She was so sweet.
Well I was treated like a princess. The only problem I have is when they were transporting me from recovery to my room the ran me into the walls, the elevator doors and then the doors of my room. Okay I know you may hit one thing but come one when the patients starts crying from you hurting them. Chill out. My mom remembers the nurses I dont and they should be lucky that I dont. Other then that the food was good and the doctors were cool.

Okay Im not dead...:0)
You know I was not as scared as I thought I would be going into surgery. I was actually having fun with all the different people comming in and out of my room. I was laughing a joking around. Dr. Averbach did give me a litte scare for a second when he had a senior moment in the pre-op room. I just told not to do that in the or. We all laughed. He did a wonderful job. I am in alot of pain, maybe more then most seem to say because I still cant stand up straight. I had a small scare today because the outter thigh went numb and I started to get pains in it. Of course Dr. Averbach sent me to the hospital for testing. All went well. Something about muscle tension and my siatic. Simple tylenol and a heating pad will make it all better.
I just wanted to say thank you to all of my OH friends for there love a support. I dont think I would of had as much courage as I did if it wasnt for you all and God of corse.
I will keep you posted.
