Guest guest Posted December 15, 2000 Report Share Posted December 15, 2000 Hi everyone, Today is the day: DECEMBER 15th IS FINALLY HERE!!!! My husband and I went to clinic yesterday and met the infamous Dr. R.. He was a very nice man, attractive, bright and down right funny. He was very serious at times but threw in a few little one liners and he told some great stories. His memory is like that of an elephant. When we went in, it was a small room I thought, (I imagined it larger) and there were probably 30 people there. As you have been told, we watched a video, Barbara talked to us and told us how to find out what time surgery was by calling hospital and we looked at a foam tummy. Old and new foam tummy. I am sorry but that was a great learning tool. You get to see, first hand, the before and after tummies. And the exact staple lines that will be in you tummy are in the foam. Oh, the staples won't set off any metal detectors at the courthouse or the airport! We all introduces ourselves and told a little about ourselves and how we found out about Dr. R. He was surprised to hear that I have been watching from the internet for over 2 years and his first number of patients that I saw was 69. Anyway, after his talk and questions from the group, you go to a small room to talk privately. We did and was out of there in 2 1/2 hours. It was nice, informative, and fun! Now for wait for surgery. My surgery is at 11:30. I must be at the hospital at 8:30. Hopefully, I will taken in sooner. Well, I am off. Jackie will be posting for me tonight. She will give you all the details! See ya soon! from GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
