I was referred to Dr Kramer following the discovery of a mass in my colon during a colonoscopy, and the need to remove it surgically. Dr Kramer and the hospital where the surgery was performed utilize an “Enhanced Recovery Program” (ERP} to prepare, educate, and sustain patients to have best/most comfortable surgery experiences. I’m sure that each patients’ experience is unique, but I am glad to share that mine was was far more comfortable than I would have ever dared to think possible. During my stay in the hospital, I never needed anything more than Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for very minor pain control. After first day at home I discontinued even these items as pain was pretty nonexistent. I don’t know if my “painless” experience was due to my surgeon’s technique and skills or the ERP, but the combination was great!
