Guest guest Posted December 19, 2000 Report Share Posted December 19, 2000 How long from you initial visit with the Doctor to the date of the surgery? I am new and I am trying to get some idea of how long I have to wait. My meeting is on the 4th of January with Dr. Rheins at Newton Wellsley. I have seen a lot about Dr. Thayer but not much about Dr. Rheins? Has anyone used him? Lee Westborough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 19, 2000 Report Share Posted December 19, 2000 Hi Lee, I had Dr. Reines for my surgery (10/17/00). From what I hear, he doesn't quite have the bedside manner that Dr. Thayer has, but you have to get to know him. He's a great doctor, and really knows his stuff. He has a no nonsense sort of attitude, but once you get to know him, you'll get to know his lighter side, too. My first visit was at the end of August.....and my surgery was October 17, so that was about 6 weeks from day 1 to S-day (surgery day). Feel free to ask any questions you might want to, and email me privately (Sue4Life@...) if you'd rather. You're going to love this group!! {{{Hugs}}} Sue from Webster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
