Michael Storey

"I really liked Dr. Storey the first consult I had with him. He was totally frank with me,and I felt I would not be able to have the surgery due to some health issues. I have a huge hernia and most of the top muscle is torn away leaving a big gap in my adominal wall. He said it would be hard to suture me up, since there was no wall to adhere to. It would be up to the surgical binders to keep me together. My weight was also above 60 BMI. I lost 20lbs to have the surgery. I had the surgery weighting in at 293 lbs, and I am only 5 Ft tall. I was in the hospital for 7 weeks, all the complications he predicted for me came true. I was in the hospital for a month before being transferred to a long term care facility for the rest of my recovery. Dr Storey was always on top of the situation, every step of the way. I was scared, but knew I was in the best hands I could be in. I didnt know if I was going to live or not, but the scare was mostly in my mind. I eventually went home in the care of my husband who had been trained how to take care of me. My husband was great. I would do it all over again. I love Dr. Storey, I give him a big A+ for his care. I dread going in for his aftercare, he is really strict, and I know the areas I know he is going to ride me about. Water and Protein!!!! The staff seemed very well organized little wait time in his office. I would highly recommend Dr. Storey to anyone, he is really on top of his game, and truthful, no sugar coating it. If he tells you you may have complications believe him, but if he tells you he can handle it, then go with it. You will be in good hands. I have no negative comments about Dr. Storey or his office at this time. Bayshore Hospital, well thats another topic. Jeanie H. "
