    Cool! I'm going to my first appointment with him this morning.

    My family dr said he has heard a lot of good things about him. He's the one that recommended him to me.

    How did you appt go with Ray? I should have given my name to you. He doesn't even know I am having surgery. LOL We have a very small family so I am sure he figured it out. I was going to have him do mine but he's so far away. Good Luck! You are in great hands.

    Thanks, it went well. He's seems really nice. I wondered why he wasn't doing your surgery. I thought maybe you get the family discount. LOL
