baylee9866 0 Posted January 11, 2009 Hello, I am scheduled to be banded on Tues. Jan13th at the surgery center with Dr. Greene. I was just wondering if anyone else has used him and what there experience was? I was reading that some people stay for hours a the hospital after surgery and I was told at pre-op that I am the first apt. at 6:30 a.m and would be walking out the door by 10a.m..... getting nervous that maybe we wont be home in time to get the kids ANY comments are greatly appreciated.

SunnyRachel 7 Posted January 11, 2009 First off, congratulations! I wish you a smooth surgery and an easy recovery! I live in PA, but work in MD, did not have surgery with Dr. Greene, but wanted to say hello just because I'm kind of a neighbor of yours. I'm in Baltimore almost every day. But I did want to comment on the kids issue... I was given a time frame too about surgery, but then when I got to the hospital, many staff members there made it pretty clear to me that my surgeon was always running behind by at least an hour. My husband thought he would have enough time to get home to the kids (I stayed overnight, so I didn't matter. lol), but he was rushing out there... five minutes after he left, the doctor called him on the cell phone to say that I was done. ha ha ha So it might be good to just have a backup plan for getting your kids home in case of those incidental things. I look forward to hearing about your progress!!! Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
