I met Dr. RoseMarie Jones on September 15th, 2004 She was knowledgeable, confident, nicely dressed and very pleasant on my first meeting with her.
The office staff was very nice, kind, helpful and if they could not answer a question they knew who to refer you to.
Her office had extra large chairs which I felt little in since I did not hang over them and I still had extra room in the chair.
Dr. RoseMarie Jones does not want people changing there pain meds before surgery! If you have chronic pain now do not listen if someone tells you to lower your pain meds. I did, I'm in a lot of pain now, and I am having to fight to get the pain meds I need back again because I weened myself off of them after being advised by well meaning people. My husband is getting involved with my doctors to get me back on Methadose which relieves my pain and it is cheap at the Pharmacy compared to Morphine Sulfate. Loratab does not relieve my lower back pain and Fibromyalgia. I have to have my pain controlled so that I can continue to work out at the gym which in turn will help my back pain and Fibromyalgia after I lose this weight.

I was unable to have my surgery today because I had an allergic reation to the liquid pain reliever my Family Doc started me on shortly before my surgery date. Also my blood pressure was too high. Hopefully I will get a 2nd chance to have this surgery.

Heather, the Surgery Coordinator, returned my call today. Heather is just so kind and nice to me. I think she is a very special person.
Dr. Jones was booked up with surgies already scheduled until the end of this year.
Dr. Brenda Caccuci agreed to do my surgery on Tuesday, December 21, 2004. I am so thankful that Dr. Brenda worked me in so quickly. I have only heard great things about the Women at Carmel Surgical Specialist. I only have 4 more days and then the New Me is going to start emerging and a shed these pounds.
I can't wait to meet you Dr. Brenda on my surgery day. I've heard how wonderful and skilled you are from some of your other patients. I trust you with my life.
