Questions from Caren

[Guest guest]

Caren,

I would not let anyone touch me unless I was totally comfortable

about the

surgery and the doctor doing it beforehand. If you want to see Dr.

Zamboni

before the surgery to discuss more details about it and to have any

more

questions answered, then you do it, and they should be more than

happy to

accomodate you. Hey, you are going to fork over several thousand

dollars here, and there is no room for a cavalier attitude on their

part.

I saw my explanting p/s once when I first had questions about why I

was

sick, another appointment for a pre-surgery discussion and pictures,

and

then had the surgery. You should get at least this much.

Call them again and tell them you want to see the Dr. again before

your

surgery date.

I am really sorry to hear that he wasn't able to get the insurance

coverage

for you. I am pretty sure he was successful with Lori. Did you get

a hold

of her by the way?

Patty
