Finally my first appointment with Dr. Groves!

Well - I did it - I had my first visit with Dr. Groves and got my stacks of papers for doing my hoop jumps for Blue Cross Blue Shield. I don't know why I get so nervous, I thought all day yesterday I woulld just call and reschedule like the last time. I am a bit excited, but I thought I would get to talk to the nutritionist and the physical therapist today - silly me thought they were all in the same place. I was lucky though, got both booked for this Wednesday - YIPPEE! I didn't realize that they would need to take my picture fronton and then a sideview, I hope that is the last big picture of me to be taken and that I will be on the road to a healthier me ! My knees are in heaven just thinking about carrying around LESS of ME!! lol I've known that Dr. Groves was the one for me as soon as I met him , and today's visit just confirmed my first impression!

Thanks for letting me vent, hubby doesn't want to hear anything about it so I am so thankful to have found this forum.

Big Smiles!

Dr. Groves is so very nice and so is Amy in the front office, but there were a couple of ladies that must have been having a rough Monday for sure.
