Samuel K. Miller
"I have only met Dr. Smoot one time and it was a consultation for a breast lump but I spent most of the appointment asking him about Weight Loss Surgery. I have considered this off and on for years. Meeting Dr.Smoot reaffirmed for me that this is the right thing to do. I have a consultation with him scheduled for May 17, 2002 and it seems like forever away. I could probrably see someone sooner if i'd choose one of the other surgeons in his practice. I'm sure they are wonderful but I have heard so much good about Dr. Smoot he is the one I want for my surgery. I'm not thrilled at the thought of Nanticoke Hospital though. Wish Dr. Smoot was with BeBee hospital. 4/20/2002 I met with Dr. Samuel Miller yesterday and the team at Changing Lives Bariatric Services. Dr. Miller is a partner of Dr. Smoots. I was very impressed by how there program is set up. It was quite well put together and you get the feeling that they really care. Dr. Miller said they would put a filter in my vein for prevention of a pulmonary embolism as my mother had problems with deep vein thrombosis when she was younger and this can be genetic. I'm glad to be having the extra security measure taken. They will work on my insurance approval and I will have blood work and a sleep study done. Then they will schedule me for open rny. Dr. Miller said that I was a candidate for laproscopic but i chickened out on that. He did say that open was safer and i want all the safety precautions I can get with this. I am tempted though to call him back and say I would like the lap procedure done. Any opinions on this please email me. "
