On May 23rd 2006 i had surgery of the spine. I had 3 disc replace in my neck by Dr Melvin Whitfield and staff. The reason why i am writing this letter is to let the world know what a blessing and awesome experience that it was for me . A supposedly one day in the hospital turn out to be a 6 day stay. Let me tell you that it is something i nor my family would ever foget.
I develope deathly complications in the recovery room I was not breathing after the surgery and as far as i know doctors responded so fast with the expertise and knowledge that they have, that i am alive today. I want to say first thank you to God for overseeing the whole procedure, thank you to Dr Whitfield & staff, Dr Biscup who visited me every day with his assistant & made me smile, Susan from Dr Whitfield's office.,
I will always be grateful to the loving caring staff in the special i/c unit, Rosales, Milly, Linda and others whose name I can't recall, to all of the young men that took exrays of my neck every morning and did not hurt me. The ENT doctor that came to see me. The gentleman that put the stem in my arm so that blood could be easily withdrawn from my arm after i run into another problem of having small veins causing me not being able to take my antibiotics and fluids.
To the radioligist who brought me the pump to help build up my lungs, the 4th floor staff espicially Sandy, Crystal and others, The 3rd floor staff thank you all for what you did for me to make my stay in your 5 star resort a memorable one. Oh also the follow up Dr that saw me on June 19th thank you for answering all my questions professionally, to Kim and Susan for faxing paperwork to my job and returning my calls.
The Cleveland Staff will always be in my prayers. May God bless everyone and thier family. Cleveland keep on doing what you do best you are #1 in my book and i will recommed any one with pain problems to visit you. If i miss any one please forgive me. I am doing great and am just waiting to get a medical release from my doctor so i can start driving myself to the malls.
Thank you from me and my family..
