Guest guest Posted August 18, 2002 Report Share Posted August 18, 2002 Bull, I sure you will be pleased with dr. Ellison. One good thing about him is he doesn't rush you out of the hospital until you are fully recovered to take care of yourself at home. If I'm ever at OSU and ran into Dr Ellison, he still remembers me and ask how I doing. He is a very caring man. I just wish there was something more he could do for me. That's how much I trust this man. I have had some docs and hospital send me home before I was recovered and only then I ended up back up in the hospital. Good luck with you surgery and I hope the inflamation settles down soon and you get some well deserved releif.
