Guest guest Posted May 26, 2000 Report Share Posted May 26, 2000 Dear Connie, My choice is a go with Dr R.. I really would not want to have any other Dr do this surgery, unless it was a flat out last resort. He is the best there is in this area by far.....plus if you run into trouble during surgery.......his backround is Trauma Surgery. So far my Ins Co says its a go.... I'm waiting for them to relay that info to Dr R's ofc and have Debbie call me with a surgery date. On that date I'll will have figured I won the Lotto. Lv Judi in Fla.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2000 Report Share Posted May 26, 2000 Great info Judi. I didn't know Dr. R's background. I can understand why you (and so many other people) want him to do your surgery. Makes perfect sense to me! There is a local surgeon here in Dallas that has done a lot of these surgeries as well, and I thought I would just go to meet with him----to interview him and have some type of comparrison. Dr. R certainly seems to be the leader in this field! How long did it take for your insurance to give approval? Good luck with that Lotto! I know you will hit the jackpot, and with any luck, maybe I'll be able to follow suit! (too many gambling analogies! LOL) Connie > Dear Connie, > My choice is a go with Dr R..
