I am feeling pretty good overall. My energy level is still quite low but seeing a slight improvement each day. Two wonderful unexpected side effects I am experiencing are: no shaky hands ( I have no idea what was causing this but it is now gone!) and I am no longer hot (temp wise....hehehehe). I cannot tell you what a welcome pleasure this is. I have been burning up for years....ask anyone that knows me and there better be cool temps or a fan going at all times. I am completely comfortable now! It's as if the surgery adjusted my inner core thermostat! Love that....looking forward to more good to come.

I would recommend your services and in fact have already done so. The process was very organized, my questions were answered by your staff no matter how many times I called and the medical staff was extremely professional and proactive. I was kept informed of next steps for the most part.

The one disappointment I had was being discharged at 3:00 a.m. because there were 5:00 a.m. surgeries scheduled. It would have been nice to know this was coming instead of awakened and told I needed to get dressed to leave.....what??

Thank You!
