paglahg 9 Posted April 27, 2013 Ursilla McMillan just left Saint Raphael's and moved to Springfield Mass. She will be working out of Mercy Hospital. She is awesome! Fixed my hernia when I had lapband. Just did my sleeve before she left. Accomplished, highly educated in her field, down to earth and easy to talk to. If you look her up you wll see for yourself. I worked at the hospital she used to work at for ten years. Doctors and nurses alike always sung her praises as well as the patients.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andi 78 Posted April 27, 2013 Are you in the western part of the state? There's a lot of good bariatric programs around the Boston area. I had my sleeve done at Lahey clinic in Burlington. They're a really good team & I was well cared for. If it's a bit of a ride for you though it might be inconvenient. There are a LOT of appointments prior to & after surgery. 1 marielove reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

patsybrown 20 Posted April 28, 2013 I went to The Beth Israel WLS. Daniel Jones did my surgery but they are all good. They usually go ahead and take out your gallbladder and they will repair any type of hernia situation that they find once they get in there. Mi went for my first visit on March 11 and had my surgery April 22nd (Monday). I feel good. Also The Beth Israel nurses after my surgery were fantastic!! Good Luck!
