Im in Midwood Park, and that is near Flatbush. Yea, I think Dr. Gorecki is the main guy there. I think there is only suppose to be one other doctor but I never see him.

I worked as an RN in their ER in the mid 80s. My son and his wife had their Baby there last December, my mom broke her ankle in the hospital doorway on the way to see her great grand baby being born and ended up in the ER the same day. i was not impressed by their nursing care. I hope it is better for you.

I had my son there as well as my surgery, both times I was treated well. I went to visit a friend though, and they forgot a few things that should have been done. I think it just may not be consistent, however from personal experience with other Brooklyn hospitals, Methodist is pretty good. I went with Gorecki because my friend had her surgery done almost ten years ago, and is well. I had one other recommendation. So him mostly sold me. I hear Lenox Hill is good. NY pres is the best hospital in the country. Too far for me though. Im happy.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
