Hello Johnna,
My 78 year old mother just had surgery in August at John Hopkins.. her surgeon was Dr Pawlik and we were all very impressed with him. depending on where you live in delaware this might be little closer for you and I would say he was top notch.. this is one of his specialties. after more than 10 hours of surgery he seemed like he could start all over again.. very energenic and positive.. My mother really liked him. We also met with a Dr Marsh at University of Pitts.. he definatley seemed very knowledgeable as well but Hopkins was a much better location for our family.. very fortunate to be so close to so many great hospitals that could handle this disease.
Thank you all for all your stories. they really help.. Happy to report that although they are still treating My mom for the bacteria in her blood, pnemonia seems to be be gone and looks like they are sending her home tomorrow so she has done very well dispite some of the complications.. we are also very grateful that she was eligible for the surgery. Best wishes to everyone.
