My husband and I are from Houston. We were in New Bransfuls for a wedding when I went into labor. We were lifeflighted from New Bransfuls to Austin. I had Severe Preeclampsia, HELLP Syndrome and Toximia. I had a 50/50 chance and so did my son who was only 25 weeks. Dr. Polon was the one working that night. He litteraly saved my life and my sons...well technically the nicu did. He was 1 lb 4 oz.. I can't say enough about St. David's NICU staff! But , Dr. Polon took such good care of me. A week after my surgery my HELLP syndrome relapsed. Doctor Polon was always available to me by cell phone and answered every call. He immediatly admitted me back into the hospital for another week becuase my liver was shutting back down. He was there checking on me every day. If he couldn't stop by he called and talked to me or the nurses. He came to my room and would sit down and talk to me, my husband and my parents and explain or answer any questions we had. He did everything possible to find out why I wasn't healing as I should, but because of the HELLP syndrome, my body just needed more time. He had me come in every couple weeks to check me while we were in Austin for 4 months with my son. He was just as professional in his office and so was his staff. They were all very nice. He took the time to explain to me what was going on. Once we left Austin he offered to call my new OB/GYN in Houston and explain to them my situation and what they need to watch for on me. I still keep in contact with him. If I could drive back to Austin every time I needed to see an OB/GYN i would. I have recommended him to all my friends in Austin.
