Connie Ziegler didn’t let sudden paralysis stop her active lifestyle, but the resilient Derry Township woman was almost derailed by something that many women suffer silently: Overactive bladder.

“I couldn’t tell when I had to go and I leaked because of bladder spasms. I don’t let anything stop me, but I would stay home because I was embarrassed and ashamed,” said Ziegler, 57, who five years ago developed transverse myeletis, a neurological disorder caused by inflammation of the spinal cord that can develop after a viral infection. It can have permanent effects such as paralysis and bowel

I just wanted to thank you for all that you have done for me — from getting my surgery date moved up to taking the time to answer every question and concern that we had. The last two months have been a whirlwind, and I am thankful that you have been my doctor through the whole process!

It is with a heavy heart that I tell you my dear grandmother has passed away. She was a fighter until her last breath for sure. So for you and your team, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. Your guidance and support and kindness did not go unnoticed during her journey. Especially when you were helping with getting her the Hospice care she needed. This was by far the hardest thing I have experienced in life but at the same time you always put a smile on her face even at the worst times. Thanks for being a special person and doctor.

Dr Tucker is the greatest doctor my husband an I have ever encountered. Not only is he great at his profession but He also has a great personality, bed side manner, is straight up with you an goes way beyond what is expected of him.

My husband had been dealing with some medical issues an after a cat scan an MRI was called by PcP office an told they thought he had cancer an that we needed to see a list of different specialists. No clear explanation of test results or why we were seeing all these different docs. This type of news should have never been given over the phone.

Dr Tucker was the first doc we saw an ask why were there to see him an our answer was we weren't sure. He asked if any one went over all the test results an when we told him no he went way above an explained every test result to us in layman terms. He even went as far as explaining to us what the hematologist/oncologist would probably do an how they would do the liver biopsy an He was correct.

They didn't even explain it when they sent us for it, but thanks to Dr Tucker we knew what to expect. Explaining all these results was not his job but the job of the doc who ordered the test. The Hematologist office couldn't get him in for another 2 weeks an he encouraged me to push for sooner an I did an was able to get him in a week earlier.

Even though were still scared of my husband diagnosis, we left Dr Tuckers office feeling relieved knowing what we could expect. I can't thank him enough for what he did for us that day. I wish there was such a thing as a doctor of all trades an it was Dr Tucker, if there was he would be the only doc my entire family would see. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING DR.TUCKER

Thank you for seeing me in the absence of my urologist. I do really appreciate the fact that you wanted to run labs, not only because it was prudent to so, but more importantly because you knew it would give me peace of mind. That is the true measure of a phenomenal physician and I applaud you.
