Guest guest Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Hi guys, Thanks so much where you have led me so far. It's en bloc for me for sure -- no questions. I am indebted to you for getting me firmly on that path. I spoke with Dr. Kolb last night. She called me on the phone the same day I emailed her!!!! Pretty amazing. She was great. I am willing to go to Atlanta, but it is going to be about twice as much to do that than if I stayed in Florida ( higher surgery costs, lotel stay, flight or gas costs, etc....) I found Dr. Debaise in Orlando -- just a 2.5 hour drive from me who does en bloc removal. He costs about half of what Dr. Kolb costs, plus travel and hotel will be much less, and follow-ups will be pretty easy. Any views, sisters? If $6,000 is what it's going to take to get it just right, then I won't blink at it.(It's coming from a loan, anyway!) I just want to know if it would be just as good to go to the fellow in my area, even though I don't know if he is sympathetic to the idea of implants causing sickness or not. Thanks in advance, and I am not doubting either of these surgeons or questioning high prices or anything negative. Just investigating. Gratefully, Dawn in Florida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
