Lyudmila S. Pupkova

"I really liked Doctor Bertha, but he wasn't really talkative. It was ok though since I was rooting for his experience. After my surgery though, I never saw him again since his schedule was too crazy, and he was busy doing surgeries. I was given one of his many "other associates" for many months post-op and was given many explanations as to why I might have been in pain. It didn't seem like a "group" effort at that point and I was disappointed since they said its so important to "report everything", but when no one is consistant to LISTEN, it seemed all in vain. Finally I happened upon Dr. Pupkova during a check up that was scheduled because the pain was unbearable. I didn't understand her accent and wondered if this was another dead end of no help, but quickly realized that she cared and gave me original answers. Since then I've had 5 procedures and finally, last week had a revision of my original surgery. Dr.Pupkova did it and she was great. I think the team over all is a good team. But you might get thrown from doctor to doctor once the procedure is done. But if you are thrown to Pupkova... thank your lucky stars. :)"

Pure Protein Shakes

"It's a little pricey but 35 grams of protein and a good taste? Can I go wrong? If I didnt have Pure Protein Ready Made Shakes, I'd be at a loss. You get them at GNC."

Morristown Memorial Hospital

"The wing for bariatric care, didnt seem to look very bariatric care, the way a maternity ward, feels like a maternity ward. Patients with other health concerns were mixed among the bariatric patients. So much so, that the first night I was to stay in the hospital, I didn't even have a room, so had to spend the night in the recovery room. That wasnt my favorite aspect of the journey. Overcrowding gives you a righteous fear of staff infection... It really made me nervous. Nurses were nice though so that made the journey easier."

S'Mores

"This review is for the SHAKES not the Smores. Though the cost is high on this pre-mixed drink, its the only thing that got me through post-op. I liked the Banana, Cappachino and the Chocolate. If they came down in the price on this, I'd drink it exclusively of all protein drinks."
