Also, have you done a search on the clos website for your questions? The last medical-type question I emailed him he responded by referring me to the website.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2000 Report Share Posted April 6, 2000 I know that Dr R is very busy and gets tons of mail a day, however, many have said that Dr R responds to your emails rather quickly...I have mailed him twice with no response. I was asking him some medical questions, but I can't seem to get a response. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2000 Report Share Posted April 6, 2000 If it's any consolation, once you're a postop it becomes easier to reach him. If you have him paged at the hospital he'll usually call back almost immediately. E.

It's perfectly normal to be a bit anxious (and maybe even impatient...I know I was!) when we are trying to get information, make decisions and get the ball rolling. This list is for asking all the questions, and trust me, none of them are silly either1 You'd be surprised the things we've learned on this list! < > {{HUGS}} Claire Redhead in FL Clinic 4/8/00, 1pm MGB 4/10/00 !!!!

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2000 Report Share Posted April 6, 2000 Yes, I have searched the patient manual, and the web site...was just there reading through some stuff that I thought might answer my questions, but it didn't... I understand that he is busy, and didn't mean to come off as whinning, I was just asking. Thanks for your help. > > I haven't " always " gotten a quick response.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2000 Report Share Posted April 6, 2000 What have you had in the subject line? Perhaps you could use caps with a subject line such as " please respond ASAP " or something. I have written to Dr R several times and have always heard back with a few days. Are they questions that can be answered if you read the website, or are they particular to your individual case? fg At 12:27 PM 04/06/2000 -0000, you wrote: >I know that Dr R is very busy and gets tons of mail a day, however, >many have said that Dr R responds to your emails rather quickly...I >have mailed him twice with no response.
