While I was unfortunate to have a very bad experience with my gynecologist, I would be failing in my duties if I dont thank some of the very nice doctors who saved my life
1. Dr Leonard Sherman
He is the radiologist who read my second CT scan and had the guts to go against his colleague and tell them that there is no DVT or PE. He is the one who saved me from getting the IVC Filter. He is my god, no words can ever fail to express my gratitude and thanks to him
I don't know if I'll ever be lucky enough to meet you but I thank you each and every day of my life
2. Dr Todd Singer
The Interventional Radiologist who did the surgery for draining fluid from my abdomen. Since I was on heparin, I couldn't be given spinal anaesthesia. He offered me general but I was worried that they would proceed with IVC Filter while I am asleep
He was so calm and talking to me during the procedure , telling me about the baby he and his wife had 5 months back. Even when I was shouting uncontrollably he told me very nicely "Don't worry, things will be fine. I have seen your records. You don't need a filter"
Dr Singer, you don't know how much your kind attitude mattered to a lonely frightened girl.
