Surgeon Testimonial

Douglas M. Krahn
Nothing but good things to say about Dr Krahn, his Assistant Brian and the entire staff.
From my very first seminar, to my consultation and now after my surgery, they have taken excellent care of me and given very good education both pre and postop.
I sincerely feel as though Dr Krahn and his staff truly care.. that is priceless !!
I did have a complication after surgery but even so, I was completely comfortable knowing that they were doing everything possible to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

Just an Update
posted on 10/19/08 6:34 pm
Last weekend I wasn't feeling real good.. Felt as if my blood pressure was up... Had some chest pains come and go... so I went to my primary doctor 1st thing monday morning... Sure enough my pressure was up (but not as high as it was over the weekend) They did an EKG and everything looked normal... she did put me back on a low dose BP med... bummer.. I was so excited to go off of them, but I guess my body is still going though an adjustment.. hopefully this will only be temporary.. Because of the chest pains she did refer me to a cardiologist for a stress test... I had my appt Wednesday and my blood pressure was much better and I hadn't felt the pain for 3 days... so the doctor didn't see the need to put me through the stress test.... She sais that it would be hard for me... (guess because of my size...) She did say if the pain came back, call her office right away or go to ER... so far, so good....

I almost had my first ... I was at work eating a piece of chicken when all of a sudden I felt like I was going to lose it all... I didn't think that I'd make it to the restroom... but I did, and once I got there the feeling went away.... whoohooo, close call.....I've been surprised through this whole process that I have yet to get sick... I was starting to think, I wasn't the norm !!   I realize Im a lucky one, but I now know it can happen even to me.......ahaha...........I think I was eating way to fast and wasn't chewing like I should...

Kinda of a Wow moment today.... The lowest weight I remember being for years was 259 which was about 5 yrs ago..... Today I got on the scale and it read 258 !! Whooooohooooooo!!!  Too cool !!!
