So Happy with my Doctor

Just had to share. I am very happy. I love Idaho healthcare! We have some awesome doctors up here. I went to see my primary doctor. I've never had my thyroid checked and it's been years since I had a full blood workup. I decided since my surgery is scheduled with Dr. Ramos Kelly in Mexico, that it wouldn't be a bad idea to get all this done so I have a baseline to compare the new me to. He did a full blood work up on me. My results will be back Monday.
He agrees with my decision for surgery. He is very ok with me doing it in Mexico. He said they have wonderful doctors there. His father lives there and loves their health care system. He wants to see me 2 weeks after the surgery and will be happy to do my aftercare. It was a relief for me. I’ve read the stories that doctors here don't want to touch you after you go to Mexico. The only thing he recommended is that I get my flu shot before going.
He put me on Chantix to help me quit smoking. He said he wants me to quit, it will help with my healing process.
