Unity Hospital (COE)

"The last few rooms at the end of the wing I was in were private rooms and were for wls patients. Because my room was at the end of the hall it was nice and quiet. In order to get to the shower you needed to walk over to the next wing, done on purpose for us to get our walks in. The amount of walks needed for the day was put on the black board at the end of my bed. As I did them I crossed them off. Also I marked off the amount of fluids I took in. Some of Dr. Daniel Baker’s nurses had the surgery themselves, the rest are well-trained in it. It was an excellent place to be at for surgery, I felt I could rest and I was very comfortable. When I complained of my lower back hurting a little, they immediately brought me a K-Pad which I used the whole stay and it worked. I would highly recommend both Unity Hospital and Dr. Daniel Baker!"

Daniel Baker

"Seems to be a very kind and knowledgeable man! He has a ‘presence’ about him. He’s appears quite calm and assured, and there's a sense of strength about him. I KNOW I’m in very capable hands!"

James Collins

"Jim was extremely easy to talke to. I felt very comfortable and it was easy to be open with him about anything. I feel he was very cautious about not letting me go to surgery until he really felt I was ready. I'm grateful for him."

EAS AdvantEdge French Vanilla Carb Control Shake

"I eat t his with Blue Bunny Carb Rite vanilla or raspberry Yogurt. Because it contains soy, it works great with yogurt. I don't know how it tastes with milk or water. With yogurt the mixture tastes somewhat like cake batter."

Thermojetics Formula 1

"The vanilla and the wild berry flavors were the only two I liked. I'd mix the vanilla with oatmeal or yogurt. And I mixed the wild berry with vanilla yogurt or in milk. This was done pre-surgery. I'm not sure how they'll work after. They are soy isolate based so they work well with dairy based products."

Zone Perfect Bars

"Peanut Butter and the Chocolate Mint were my favorites. And now I have to add the Chocolate Almond Raisin as quite good also, althou, sometimes the almond flavoring is a bit strong and the bar too sweet. But it really satisfies my sweet tooth, when I'm craving something. The only protein bar I've found that's close to how good these are is not a Zone bar but "Balance Gold" in the Caramel Nut Blast flavor - not bad for protein bars!"

Merge - Vanilla

"I'm pre-surgery, so it may change after. Right now I take my protein powder in the Blue Bunny Carb Rite yogurts. This product, because of the whey, and yogurt does not mix! The whey makes the concoction taste sour - just gross. I tried to get down a couple spoonfuls and finally tossed the mess. I've tried yogurt with other whey-based proteins and it makes it sour. So I have to stick to soy if using yogurt to mix it with."

Thomas A. Breen

"Dr. Breen has been our family doctor since shortly before I married in 1979. He delivered my son and has always been a great listener and easy to talk to. "
