Surgeon Testimonial

Michael W. Johnell, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Dr. Michael Johnell is the most amazing Dr I have met to date. He has made me feel like i am his only patient and really takes the time to explaine everything to me in laymans terms. During my all day class, he came in and spoke to everyone and answered any questions we had and really was there for support. If you haven't chosen a surgeon yet and your in Colorado, I Highly reccomend him as your surgeon. The care program they have in place is amazing! They have classes for all areas of your journey from beginning, middle and forward on your journey. There is someone to answer any questions that arise 24/7. And the whole staff is nothing but respectful and caring for you and what your doing there.

The day after surgery
posted on 11/6/09 8:27 am
Well I got to the hospital yest about 8:15 am and was checked in and being prepared for surgery. The staff at Northen Colorado med center in Greeley was awesome. Every single person their made me feel important and very well cared for.

I went into surgery about 10:15 and was back in recovery room by 11:15-11:30. Apon awakening they made sure I was very comfortable and told me everything I need to now for my new transition. I was taken to my recliner chair to get ready for my swallow test. After the swallow test, I came back to my recliner and got to have water, chicken broth and jello.

The only thing that hurt was the gas they put in you for surgery. My shoulders hurt badley and I was informed it would get better in 24hrs. It made it hard to take deep breaths and just was really un-comfortable. But I was told that walikng would help so I immmediatly got up  and started walking. And it did help somewhat.

Today I am up and about taking it slow but making sure I walk alot.  That is truly the key to getting better so Walk, walk walk!

I am feeling great today, taking n my fluids including protien water and jello and am very happy with my results and just the whole experience.
