Re: Dr. Arnett-Or a recommended Surgeon?

[Guest guest]

Hi there,

I am scheduled to have my surgery done by Dr. Arnett July 27th.

Since I haven't had my surgery yet, I can't provide too much

information first hand, but I have only heard great things about Dr.

Arnett and Dr. Gunson. I live in Colorado, and heard such great

things about Dr. Arnett, I am going to fly out to Santa Barbara for

this surgery. So far, my experience with him and his office have

been great. He is extremely busy, so scheduling an appointment for

surgery is difficult, but I think it's worth waiting for.

I've heard some horror stories of individuals having the surgery

done and have their midlines wrong, and have to have it redone.

I've talked to some of Dr. Arnett's patients, and they all rant and

rave about him. I've also been told, he has been known to " fix " the

bad surgeries done by other surgeons.

Since my surgery is coming up soon, I will be sure to let you know

about my experience. I have to have both my upper and lower jaw

broke, so I'm in for quite the adventure.

Good luck on everything. I know how frustrating it is to try to

understand everything and get to the right doctors. I'm still

trying to prepare myself, and I only have a few weeks left!

Talk to you soon,

Nichol
