I am feeling better since the stent was placed in my subclavian artery. I can get a blood pressure reading in my left arm now. My hands and feet aren't as cold. I am starting to get some energy back. Everything went well the day of the surgery, although it was a little hectic with 3 or 4 people getting me ready for the surgery all at once. I forgot to let them know I am allergic to paper tape{probably the adhesive} and I had an allergic reaction to the stretchy tape they put on me{not bad, because I discovered it that night}. I really think Dr. Sywak did an excellent procedure and I expect to be doing yard work in the Spring. I am grateful that my primary care physician Dr. Buurman noticed something odd about the sound of my artery and had the ultrasound done and then referred me to Dr. Powell, who in turn referred me to Dr. Sywak . Thanks to all involved. Sincerely, Cathy Barker

Very professional and takes the time to talk to his patients

Dr. Sywak was professional, compassionate, knowledgeable, and thorough. I never felt as a patient that I was taking up too much of Dr. Sywak’s valuable time. He spent as much time listening to and answering my questions as was needed. Thank you.
