Any fellow Minnesota folk out there?

I'm having my surgery at Abbott Northwestern in Minneapolis. I live by Rochester MN. Anyone from around here?

    I live in Fergus Falls, just curious, if you live in Rochester why would you go to Abbot Northwestern instead of the Mayo? I'm going to go down to Rochester to have the surgery. Although it is a 5 hour drive I know the Mayo Clinic is ranked so highly that I can trust that I'll be in good hands there no matter who my surgeon might be.

    Hello guys. I decided to switch centers from Fairview to Abbott and my surgeon is Dr. Drew. I am going to my second appt on Wednesday, and I will meet with Dr Drew. Hope this helps.
