Dr. Schram & Zeeland Hospital



Recommended Posts

I just wanted to say that I think Dr. Schram is an amazing surgeon and if you are considering the sleeve and you live on the west side of Michigan consider him. He is prompt, responsive, kind and professional. He prayed with me before surgery and followed up with me twice a day each day I was in the hospital. He definitely supported me going home when I felt ready which is a nice change from other surgeries I've had where it seemed they couldn't get you out fast enough. Himself and the PA both reassured me that if I need anything any hour of the day just to give them a call. The hospital itself was nice, newer in construction with a great complement of staff. The woman who registered me had gotten the sleeve two years ago and couldn't be happier. She even shared her before and after pics. That was just the type of person I wanted to meet while registering for this major surgery. Nurses were so kind calm and patient even though I had terrible nausea and pain they consistently tried to find different ways to help me.

Please note that I am not related to any of these individuals. I'm a teacher that lives about an hour and a half away and I just feel so grateful that I had such a great experience.

I also had dr. Schram do my surgery on April 15. I'm just over 3 months out. He is an amazing dr!! His whole staff is great!! My husband works for spectrum and has done some work with dr. Schram. Which is how I got hooked up with him when I decided to pursue surgery. I'm so happy I did it, so happy I choose him and so happy w my weight loss. The hospital was great too. I live only 35 min away. I recommend him to everyone!! He is current And stays on top of current issues in weightloss surgery. I just love him!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
