My Doctor is Dr. Bernard Plansky and has been my Doctor for at least 50 years. He and his wonderful wife, Catherine, have been my best friends. In July 0f 2021 I had a revision to my hip. I was put on a blood thinner. After 5 days I started feeling sick and called the pharmacy to find out if this pill was causing my stomach discomfort since I had ulcers in the past and some meds caused this. The pharmacist said that I should not be taking this drug . Since it was a weekend I immediately called Dr. Plansky on Monday morning and told him what I was experiencing. He said I could be bleeding in my stomach and to go immediately to emergency for a stomach scan. Since we were in the middle of Covid my friend dropped me off and I was taken in to have this scan. Results came back and a Nurse Practitioner came back to the room and said "you have a mass on your right side and it is CANCER". Of course I became hysterical and left the hospital after I put a call in to Dr. Plansky. This started a process of Oncology who after many test determined I had Ovarian Cancer with 6 months to live. So to say after much chemo and fighting through this I am still alive THANKS TO MY DR. PLANSKY WHO SAVED MY LIFE!!!! He is the best Doctor any person can have and I love them both.
