Hi Diane,

I called, but the receptionist said she would call me after the OD

talked with my dentist (who will be doing the full mouth rehab after

braces and surgery). So I was waiting to hear more until this

morning when they called me back. Apparently, I have a really

complex case, so the OD, Dr West and my dentist are having a consult

meeting with each other on July 15th to decide exactly how to

proceed. I was bummed that I wouldn't be getting my braces right

away, but I actully am really glad that they are taking such a lot

of of time with me and preplanning for my situation. I am really

glad I went with each of them. I am actually surprised that they

could fit this meeting into three schedules so quickly. Dr West is

in Seattle and that is about an hour drive to his office complex. I

will let you know more as soon as I do. But I will definately be

your braces buddy!

Hugs,

Fran
