Heartlands Birmingham

Sorry Claire I can't help you on this one as I don't know your hospital. I'm sure someone will be along soon to answer your questions.
Good luckxx

hiya,

Heartlands is a large hospital that has wards rather than rooms. It depends where you'll be but they have had a lot of new buildings recently. It is a very good hospital so you are in safe hands. Which surgeon are you having?

Thanks Jezabelle that would be great, hope everything goes well for you on tuesday.. I like yourself have got to lose 5-10% of my weight before i go in for my surgery on 29th September, struggling like hell with it at the moment so i think i need a good firm kick up the backside to get me motivated, the drinking is a problem for me as i dont drink alot, well not of water or squash or anything, alcohol well thats a different matter lol ( on the odd occasion ) Thanks again Jezabelle X

I have another appointment on the 20th and can also ask if you need me too. I am putting myself on a self-imposed very strict diet starting tomorrow morning because I want to show that idiot Dr Taheri that he is a moron.

Water is evil... lol
I have 2 cups of coffee and a can of diet coke a day. I used to drink loads of diet coke but i never get that thirsty now, except for today because of the tablets.
Give me a bottle of wine or bacardi or lager I am well away, like you though I don't drink that often but will binge drink when I do go out once in a blue moon. xx

Hi FL,
Which dr are you going to see this time? I hope they are more kind, you never know he may just refer you on to the surgeon. I started my strict diet today and have been really good. x

I only know the doctors first name Prasad. When I complained to Dr Taheri's boss, they promised me a new doctor. Here's to hoping I can shift the weight the dietician recommended before my appointment on the 20th.

I just did a search and found him HERE It's the only dr I can find at Heartlands with that name.

I found it buried in an email from Dr Barnett. I am seeing Dr. Prasad Yemparala. Ever heard of him? I am hoping he isn't the idiot you saw.

Sorry to say it is him, I just checked my letter I had off the hospital last Saturday. He is a member of Dr Tahari's team.

Oh no. If he is a jerk to me too I will march directly over to the PALS office.
