"Amy sees you before surgery to set up a diet plan. After surgery, while you're in the hospital, she visits you atleast twice. She's at every support group meeting if you need her. Also you can schedule a post op visit with her."
"My impression of Dr. Aranow is that he really cares for his patients. He gives them a 100% of his attention. He and his office staff (especially Lois), are kind and understanding. You never feel rushed or like you are bothering them. What I really like about Dr. Aranow is that he tells you like it is! He doesn't make everything all rosey, he's quite honest and tells you things you may not want to hear.
I am eight months post op now and I'm doing great. If you listen to Dr. Aranow and follow what he tells you. Along with attending the support group, and talking to other post ops and Amy and Kim (who run the support group). You will do well.
I was at an advantage for the surgery, because I work at the hospital and had a very good understanding about the surgery and what the post op would be.
