Anyone from RI or Southeastern Mass?



Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone else is having or has had surgery at Wareham Surgical Associates in Wareham MA? I love them so far. They take care of everything and just tell me where and when to show up. They have been understanding of my work situation and are trying their best to accommodate me within my time frame. My surgeon is very personable (and humorous). The entire staff has been nothing but helpful and friendly.

It would be nice to talk to someone from around here. Anyone?

I have been very very impressed with them. The staff made all my appointments for me and did their best to work within my schedule. They are informative, easy to talk to, and respond quickly to my calls. My only delay has been due to the April workshops being full. I complete those in May. It's easy to get to and after my appts I go to Wareham Crossing to shop!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
