Extremely friendly and confident doctor who explained things better than my other doctors and found I haven't been being tested for things I should have been by my other doctors

Dr. Thaker is brilliant. So many times when nobody knew what was going on. Dr. Thaker would tell me I bet it’s this or I bet it’s that. For example my alkaline phosphatase number jumped tenfold from 67 to 673 and they were a lot of panicked people in the Liver department but I saw Dr. Thaker before he admitted me, and he said, I bet it’s the bile duct because with your liver we got the bile duct. I guess you guys throw those in for free he went on to say that half of my bile duct was connected to the new bile duct and he thinks the problem isn’t my liver or my kidneys it’s not my blood it’s the bile duct you said I bet that it’s congested were the two bile ducks meat so I had an ERCP, they put the tube down my throat into my esophagus and they use that like submarine telescope camera to not only check out my liberal and to take pictures but they saw the bile duct was in fact compressed right where he said it would be so the doctors put a balloon down there, inflated it and return the width of my bile duct at that point to it size at the Transplant. So he monitors the blood tests like a detective monitors a suspect. He also has one of my trust. I’ll never forget how he guided me through all the worst parts of this. He is my friend.

Dr Thakers team are Very thorough. One point of note today was that the experience in the labs in 17th floor was way below par for NWMH. I work in Healthcare and familiar with the process. The lab technician appeared tired, poor greeting, lot of visible tattoo, yawned in the meeting. Later after drawing of blood she did not show my my name on the blood culture, I waited on the chair, her back was side ways to me, she turned around after about 30 seconds after the bloods draw and securing the blood cultures, and said I could go. That was it. Opposite the area, were three staff members, one staff member was putting a blood culture into a bag, while two others were talking about the shifts they were getting or having issues with.overall it appeared very unprofessional, and not something I've ever experienced at NWMH.
