Peter Rohde

It's a timing issue. Once he had surgery, he didn't gear up to be ready for Feb. 23 or even Spring Training. He was gearing up for Opening Day. Our hope, and I think everyone's hope, would be it he could have through Spring Training, and then a determination be made.

Barry Axelrod

John Stiegelmeier

I'm not going to lie. I was starting to wonder if it was ever going to get better. If I kept going, there was a possibility of tearing it (rotator cuff). I was definitely scared if I tried too hard, there was a chance I would have to have surgery and never swim again.

Meghan Walsh

Nancy Downes

Well, the guy's had open-heart surgery, ... He laid on that table and had them cut him open. And everything else. And he's here playing football. That says something. You give the guy the benefit of the doubt that, hey, he's tough enough to do this.

At this point in time, there's no plans to do surgery to remove that bird shot.

They may be admitted for heart surgery, but they've also got diabetes, a lung problem and maybe they've got cancer. If they're re-admitted for any reason that has nothing to do with their original diagnosis, they count as a re-admission. Patients are so incredibly complex.

Bob Harris

Radiation, chemotherapy, surgery.

Lisa Grant

Webster Thompson

I am totally against plastic surgery. A lot of people think I have breast implants because I have the biggest boobs in the business.

Richard Young

We had a good run out of all three of those guys. Eric especially has been running better. He's running with pain from surgery he had in the spring and we've had him biking and his times are starting to drop.

Greg Meister

Obviously, we are not going to be doing open heart surgery at this stage. Eventually, we should be able to perform most operations.

Dr. Mehran Anvari

Nine out of 10 women don't go into surgery to change their breasts because of bad back pain. They do it to get a better job, a new man, a better life. There are often psychological problems at the basis [of surgery] and my fear is that women aren't being challenged enough about them.

Linda Papadopoulos

The study followed Scandinavian men under age 75 for a decade after surgery. Overall, surgery reduced deaths.

Michael Blute

He had the surgery and is up to full-speed running now.

We've got people waiting 18 months for surgery on their hips, ... And we have a demand for that type of service where they can pay for (the surgery) so they can get their life back.

Dontrell Moore

The practice of medicine is a thinker's art the practice of surgery a plumber's.

Martin H. Fischer

Experience is what counts. You want someone who does this every day, not someone who rents for a day to do a couple of surgeries. You don't want to be the guinea pig for an obstetrician delivering his first baby, or a doctor doing open-heart surgery for the first time, right?

David Goldberg

He just had rotator cuff surgery, so he's just starting to be able to pick up his guitar and play it aggressively. He should have had [the operation] six months ago. It was an injury he sustained in a car accident. And then on top of that, all the playing we do and how we do it made matters worse. We're sort of the Dillinger Insurance Plan for the moment.

Liam Wilson

After the surgery, I went home the same night (a Tuesday), ... I hung out at my house for the rest of the week until Sunday. Getting through that first week was the hardest part. It was good to be at home. My parents helped out a lot.

The death rate in this country from gastric bypass surgery is probably all less than 1 percent. But if you stratify that by ages of patients, risk class of patients and then also the surgeon's (years of) experience, then there are groups that are at a higher risk.

Dr. Kenric Murayama

Alexi is an amazing kid. She has had a really tough season in terms of her surgery and just coming back from that not only physically but mentally, and it's pretty amazing what she's capable of doing. She did a great job for us today.

Jaime Ruszala

She worked well, and we're planning on running (in the Distaff,) ... She had a major excuse in the Beldame because of a reoccurring breathing problem. We think we've got it corrected. She didn't have surgery; we treated it with antibiotics.

Larry Jones

It was kind of a bittersweet day. My mom was having a tough morning because one child was having surgery and the other had good news.

Brian Bannister

He (Cline) has brought me a long way. I'm sure I would be in the hospital, and had surgery, without him.

Andrew Magee

I'm ready to get back into it. I don't like to be on the side. But with the shoulder, I don't want to rush back into it, and want to make sure it's right. I don't want to go through surgery again.

Ken Hamlin

Even with six surgeons working there it was struggling to get that number because there is not enough theatre time to do the surgery.

He will probably have to get plastic surgery. We had a hard time without him, but they were the more aggressive team tonight, and I think our lack of depth hurt us.

There is no such thing as a safe surgery. If I could do that day over, I would have never gone in.

Wendy Harris

Doctors have talked to me about growth hormone therapy. There is limb lengthening surgery, as well.

Jerrold Nadler

But my roommate (former Lady Cougar Amanda Barksdale) had had surgery on her knees before. And she told me, 'If you do what you've got to do, you'll be back by the time the (Comets') season starts.' I guess I stopped crying by then.

Sancho Lyttle

If possible (surgery) should be within the golden hour, ... But you can still produce good results within three or four hours.

Peter Byrne

I found out (Sunday) and I was shocked. Then, I heard today that he was in critical condition after the surgery. That didn't sound good. It's terrible. He's 45 years old. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met in or out of baseball.

Jack Mcmahon

Historically, we have been looking for ways to have people get better sooner from major abdominal surgery, especially intestinal surgery.

Dr. Michael Harris

You have to be really careful with this type of surgery. You really have to give the procedure a chance to work and for the knee to heal. If you don't, you're asking for trouble.

Penny Hardaway

Our study indicates that cancer remains an important contributor to overall mortality in these men, particularly those with high Gleason score and high serum PSA. These data will be useful for men with localized prostate cancer choosing between aggressive treatments such as surgery or radiation, observation and androgen deprivation therapy.

Tomasz Beer

However, in spite of my best attempts to transform my life ... the tumor cells had returned. But now the idea of [another] surgery just feels too barbaric.

Jeannine Walston

My family has been very supportive. My wife took time off of work to be with me during my surgery and is behind me all the way. As long as I follow my dreams and give 100 percent, she's going to be there.

Chris Hester

I was fortunate to have contact with a palliative nurse who was recovering from hip replacement surgery and would be available to me 24/7, ... I relied heavily on her, and she got me through it. Then after that I thought, there's something wrong with the system.

Gary Fish

I do fear for him if he has to have further surgery in such a short period of time since the last one. We were hoping to get him fit with injection and physiotherapy but it is not looking too good today.

Dr Peter Gregory

I've never had surgery before, but I'm just happy I can get back and continue the rest of the season. Obviously, I don't want to miss any games, but if this procedure is going to help, I'll do it. I'll just be so excited the next time I get to put my skates on.

Lance Galbraith

Traditional coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has undesirable side effects that range from cognitive loss to increased hospital stays that are believed to be related to artificial heart pumps. In this project, we believe that if the heart were able to beat freely during surgery, these pumps would not be needed and it is possible that these side effects might be lessened.

M. Cenk Cavusoglu

That was the best I've ever wrestled, this year at least. I'm coming off a knee injury. I need to have surgery. For me to win all my matches here and at districts means a lot to me.

Owen Thulin

If you undergo surgery for CTS, you need three months for your wrist to heal. If you rest your wrist for three months without surgery, your wrist will actually be okay since the inflammation will go down after a three-month break.

Terry Liew

We've tried surgery, medications, and nothing has changed.

Bob Enos

You hear about Fernando and Jason, and everybody kind of forgets about Taylor, because he had surgery, his numbers last year were just so-so. He's missed some time. But he's excited. If he goes Triple-A, it won't be a disappointment. Hopefully things will go well in the spring, and we'll see what happens.

Ricky Bennett

I tell a lot of girls not to have the surgery. Some coaches will pull the scholarships of injured players. I want my girls to know their scholarships will always be here.

Lonnie Bartley

It's very rewarding for me to see so many people able to work from home because I would've liked to do that after I had my surgery. I want to keep it a cottage industry, although I can foresee the day when we will have to build a plant.

Peggy Piontkowski

It was discovered that she had a floppy larynx. Every time she breathed it was sucking the larynx back into her windpipe, blocking it. The next day she was back in surgery again.

Hannah Rogers

That made things even harder. We knew there was a 25 per cent risk of something going wrong in surgery. At worst, she could die. When she smiled it made us feel even worse, but we knew she had to have the operation to have any real chance of living.

Hannah Rogers

Being able to better understand this issue - prostate cancer detection and severity - has the potential to save thousands of men a year from surgery they don't need.

Lyle Berkowitz

Surgery is an option, but the advice we have received from two leading specialists in the field is that the injury may still settle without recourse to an opera-tion.

Dr Peter Gregory

David New just had shoulder surgery. He hit a ground ball and they made an error. New went to second base head first. That set the tone for the rest of the game.

Ron Rushing

But the surgery on Tommy John has always made me think twice. Different pitcher after surgery. OK, know that other pitchers have had the same type of surgery, but are any of them up for Hall? The Hall is sacred?

Paul Osborne

At worst, a tattoo job can leave you a permanent reminder of the experience other than the tattoo. Those situations are on par with back-alley surgery.

Justin Winstanley

The surgery proceeded with no complications . . . but . . . today's surgery didn't improve Sharon's health. Every such incident does not improve the prime minister's chances of waking up.

Shlomo Mor Yosef

We are pleased our strong financial standing and outlook enabled us to establish this new credit facility under favorable terms with a syndicate of high-quality lenders. The capital this facility provides will support the company's growth as we further solidify our leadership position in minimally invasive sports medicine, spine and ENT surgery.

Fernando Sanchez

Plastic surgery is not something you recover from in a lunchtime.

Alex Best

We don't know how long he'll be out here in California. We'll just see if the surgery does what needs to be done.

Harry Wells

Surgery is the red flower that blooms among the leaves and thorns that are the rest of medicine.

Dr. Richard Selzer

This shows us seizure surgery is durable - it remains effective and safe over time.

Aaron Cohen

It's still definitely 'Grey's Anatomy.' I don't think it's anything like that other show. We do surgeries. It's about surgery. It's our show sort of on speed, I guess.

Shonda Rhimes

I knew something was very wrong as I played in the JELD-WEN Tradition and the Wal-Mart First Tee Open at Pebble Beach these past two weeks. My play was very poor, and my knee was killing me. I knew I had no other choice than to have surgery on my knee immediately.

Peter Jacobsen

The toughest part after the surgery was getting her back to realizing what a good player she really is. I think she's back to that point that I've become accustomed to. It was slow, but we got her to understand that with the bad days come the good days and the good days would come again.

Ted Small

I tended to faint when I saw accident victims in the emergency ward, during surgery, or while drawing blood. [On why he gave up medicine].

Michael Crichton

It's better than I expected to be right off [surgery], but they're the ones to decide. They're the boss. I'm in no rush, either, because I know I'll be in the [important] games when it's time.

Octavio Dotel

Coming off shoulder surgery, I needed at-bats and I got a ton of them. I led off every day during the summer and regained some of the confidence I had lost.

Robbie Wilder

Then they literally ran with me to the pre-op and then on to surgery.

Patricia Long

He's going to have surgery on Tuesday morning with [Dr. Peter] Deluca and we're looking at a minimum of 10 weeks before he will be back on the ice playing.

Jim Mccrossin

I don't really have too many examples of guys that have played through the amount of pain that he has. Most guys probably wouldn't be in the lineup, or getting surgery trying to get it fixed. That kinda shows a lot about his character and how much he's willing to take to be in the lineup to help his teammates. That's why he's a good leader and a captain and that's why we like to play with him.

Dan Spang

We spent four days looking for a non-expired synthetic graft worldwide and then all of sudden there was a 30-year-old female donor available and we went straight into surgery.

Alisa Camplin

Our family of tiny-wheeled robots has the potential to revolutionize the minimally invasive surgery field. It will replace standard surgery and at some point the surgeon's hands won't need to be in the body at all.

Dmitry Oleynikov

Matt broke his pinkie water skiing; he's having surgery today, ... I mean, we're all kind of extreme guys. We like to do extreme things; it could've happened to any of us. We've been off four weeks; we're into jet skiing and motorbiking, things like that.

Duff Mckagan

This is not a vanity operation, it's a high-risk operation. This at least allows people who are considering this surgery to go in a little bit more with their eyes open.

David R. Flum

He's had surgery. It just wouldn't get well.

Lee Campbell

We can only go so far in our current location when we have surgery rooms on the second floor and our patient preparation area is on the first floor.

Mike Cohill

Tyler got a late start after having surgery on his finger. He missed the first couple weeks of practice, then missed the Eastern Area tournament and one dual meet. But he's healthy for the county tournament.

Chuck Tursky

If we find people with operable cataracts, then we bring them back to the hospital for surgery.

Micah Hahn

It's a big opportunity, but obviously not the way I want it with a guy like 'Brich going out. To me, it's a no-brainer to have the surgery. I'm going to do my best to fill the void as far as being somebody the guys can count on.

Saleem Rasheed

I was going to have cosmetic surgery until I noticed that the doctor's office was full of portraits by Picasso.

Rita Rudner

This is a lengthy process. It won't be in the coming hours. It will be at least 48 hours after the prime minister's emergence from surgery.

Shlomo Mor Yosef

Look, I have no interest in this, ... I don't know Donovan. What he does doesn't affect me, but as an athlete, I have to say if you need surgery and you don't have this done, you're cheating yourself. Fly over there and be done with it.

Chris Leitch

The surgery was enhanced as a result because the surgeon was able to make a larger incision to relieve pressure. It allowed her to remove a larger portion of a tumor.

Denise Almazan

She was rescued by her neighbors and hospitalized. Friends accompanied her during surgery and contributed blood. Her recovery took several months. She didn't let bitterness hold her back. She resumed teaching and studying international affairs.

Dan Boone

All he has ever done is discuss vertical face surgery, a technique he innovated, and articles have speculated that Stone had the procedure.

Arthur Barens

I had surgery, and I put it off for a long time. I want to tell women: don't put it off.

Angela Lansbury

It might be worth considering . . . for some women who, within just the last year or two, have had lumpectomy for breast cancer or who have had mastectomy for cancer that had spread to the armpit and who didn't get radiotherapy after their surgery because of the side effects.

Sarah Darby

A surgery residency is five years, whereas, before you had an internship which you did a rotating internship and then decided and went into your residency. Or, if you wanted to back then, you could go into general practice.

Donald Butts

If it's very expensive to get a routine check-up, they tend to skimp on those primary care services that are preventative in nature. The problem is that it's much easier to take care of high cholesterol early on than having a heart surgery later on.

Dean Sanpei

They were less likely, particularly early on, to be referred for the balloon procedure to open up the arteries or even for bypass surgery.

Nanette Wenger

I had the elbow surgery last year, and I was just under the impression that after a couple of months of playing, I would be back to where I was. And the fact of the matter is, I'm still not very good.

John Maginnes

Kyle has injured his left shoulder and will have surgery in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately for the whole team and Kyle himself, he will have to miss the whole season and focus on five to six months of rehabilitation.

Jaka Korencan

I had quad bypass surgery in 2003. There are three of us in (two) age groups that have had quad bypass surgery. I was getting shortness of breath. In swimming you know when things aren't right.

Bob Peck

When he opened him up, he realized that... Correll probably wouldn't heal up enough to be able to play without another surgery.

Rick Burkholder

We cannot rule out some small residual influence of the surgery itself on cardiovascular events. But it looks as if women with hysterectomies have more heart disease because women who get hysterectomies also have more risk factors.

Barbara V. Howard

We think this is going to replace open surgery.

Dmitry Oleynikov

The baby had to have brain surgery and was partially brain-dead.

Carla Granstrom

Studio press agents make up anything they want to, and reporters go along with it. One flack created the legend that I had been blown up in an air crash during the war, and my face had to be put back together by way of plastic surgery. If it is a 'bionic face,' why didn't they do a better job of it?

Jack Palance

The surgery went pretty well. There was nothing unexpected.

Terry Greene

We're based in Costa Rica. A lot of people come down here for personal rehab, whether it's from surgery or whatever. We thought it was a great opportunity to get Lindsay down here.

Mike Foreman

It wasn't just my ankle. I mean, my entire leg was lacking strength. Coming off surgery, I didn't get a chance to build those muscles up. So I was basically on one leg.

Troy Hudson

We are tremendously excited about how this transaction strengthens our company's position in the heart-valve therapy space and further heightens our growth potential in the cardiac surgery market.

Michael Dale

It's just a situation where he's run out of time on PUP active status. He had some more surgery done on that knee. They took out a plate and screws. Both (head coach Dick Vermeil) and I saw it and it was pretty substantial. I don't know how he moved around with that.

Carl Peterson

The good news is I didn't need surgery. The bad news is that it ended my season. They told me we'd start with nothing but rest until at least Sept. 25, then go from there.

Ronald Bay

Kenny came through the surgery beautifully. Hopefully he will be able to be up and around soon without the pain he was feeling before the operation.

Wayne Clark

I went into the first surgery where they cut me from ear to ear and they cut my face down and they took out all the fractured egg-shelled bones and put in steel plates.

For years healthcare has been moving away from the inpatient care trends that our current facility was designed around. Outpatient services at SCMC (e.g. physical therapy, outpatient surgery, CT scans) have increased 33 percent over the past five years. The new facility's floor plan is arranged to accommodate this continuing shift in services.

Todd Willert

I'm not really worried anymore. It's my senior year and I just play to play. I love playing basketball and there's really no pressure on me. It's not brain surgery or anything like that.

Deanthony Zanders

But right after we got out of surgery, we walked around Munich. The next day, I was pedaling a stationary bike. By the third day I was jogging and around Day 5, I ran 5 miles.

Chris Leitch

Well, it's about like getting ready for open-heart surgery. It's quite a challenge. It's not an easy deal.

Joe Kines

But now we have firm data showing we should use (it) in most women with advanced ovarian cancer who have had successful surgery to remove the bulk of their tumor.

Dr. Deborah Armstrong

In California there is a company that has a robot that does surgical procedures, and we linked out technology to the robotic arms with two microscopic cameras and was able to watch the live prostate surgery in 3-D. This is 3-D floating in the air where you can put your hands through it.

James Fischbach

I really couldn't believe it. When they told me I had to have surgery, I couldn't believe it. I was really upset. I was having a great camp, and I was really excited to get the season going. I had a couple hard days, but after that, I realized I'd have a chance to come back and help the team. I threw everything aside and dedicated myself to getting back.

Jake Long

I'd say he's well on his way to coming back in September and helping us. It all depends on how he feels. I think he can probably step in there right now and hit. That's how it is for Major Leaguers. He seems to be far ahead of where he was before he had his surgery, but I'm only basing that on batting practice.

Gary Gaetti

But, the surgery went very well.

Dr. Ramon Ruiz

My back, I'm not even thinking about it. That first practice, I thought about it a little bit. That was the first time I put pads on since the surgery and did some hitting. But, I'm fine. I'm on the field practicing with the guys. There's nothing like it. I'm moving around good, just knocking the rust off.

Marco Rivera

One of the biggest drivers in the male marketplace now in cosmetic surgery is men who are 40-plus who use this as a tool to look healthy, to look young, to look vibrant.

Michael Atkinson

We are obviously disappointed that Andy has been ruled out for a further period of time. But now he's had the surgery we are pleased that the healing process has begun and we look forward to welcoming him back on the pitch.

Mike Ford

There was a time, probably about a year after my surgery and into my illness that I thought, wow, this is my life now. I won't perform again.

Colleen Dunn

Without this surgery, he can't hear. This is his last option. There is no other choice but for him to have this.

Johnny Flowers

That means that the patient either ended up with permanent harm or the error caused the patient to receive some sort of heroic intervention necessary to save life, such as CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) or surgery.

John Santell

Watching surgery, I got to see a beating heart. That's something most people never see.

Laura Defrank

I'm really glad to see she's recovering from her knee surgery and hopefully she'll continue to do better with it.

Alison Bales

There is a possibility that I won't be able to come back from this in which case I'll require surgery and I will be out for the season. Retirement would be a possibility. Right now we're patient, optimistic and hopeful that I will be able to recover from this.

Ramon Ramirez

She did not get an approval but scheduled surgery.

Jonathan Burns

They say he had a little knee surgery. But it doesn't look like it. He looked great. He caught a couple of passes, did some good things. I think our offense is using him well.

Fred Bennett

Telecommuting isn't brain surgery. It's very easy to implement, but it's breaking down the barriers.

Kathy King

Now that Andy has had the surgery, we're pleased that the healing process has begun and we look forward to having him back.

Mike Ford

Rush in and perform surgery.

Bryan Colangelo

He's not going to want to do any surgery. He liked the way the scar tissue looked to be healing. The strength was coming, so I'm basically in a pattern where I can start doing some rehab stuff, some strengthening stuff, and then start throwing in December. Then we'll go from there.

Troy Percival

Your honor, if Mr. Azevedo could undergo surgery to remove the alcohol from his system, then you would remove the criminality as well.

Todd Young

That's past history. He had the surgery. It's over with. All we can hope for now is a speedy recovery, and just go forward.

Walt Jocketty

I told them it was minor surgery. When I was out for two weeks, they didn't know why.

Stacey Hallahan

Nolan got the surgery lined up for me. I had surgery and, later that night, he had me doing some therapy. He worked with me. Nolan is a big reason I'm back.

Nevin Lubarski

We're trying to break up scar tissue and getting aggressive with it. At this point, the [November] surgery is healed. Now it's just getting it mobilized and stronger, but mobilizing causes pain. I'm just working through it.

Jayson Werth

I think there is an appreciation in her for the fact that her game came back after that shoulder surgery. I think there's a real inner appreciation for the fact that she is playing so well and is still so competitive. I think that has made her relax just a bit.

Judy Rankin

In counseling patients who are considering gastric bypass surgery, this study will help us to identify those patients who can reasonably expect the long-lasting health benefits from significantly reduced blood pressure.

Madelyn Fernstrom

Surgery is limited. It is operating on someone who has no place to go.

Dr. John Kirklin

Heart surgery is quite a big event and people are keen to know about their particular surgeon.

Andy Owens

Right after it happened I went under, and then I came back probably like 10 minutes later, ... Then I was up until I went into surgery.
