Guest guest Posted October 23, 2000 Report Share Posted October 23, 2000 Okay, my blood pressure is down now. I talked to Barbara and she said that effective Nov. 1 clinic is only being held on Tues & Thurs at 1pm. They haven't gotten around to calling everyone who has 9am clinics scheduled on or after Nov. 1. Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2000 Report Share Posted October 23, 2000 Someone wrote the other day and said a doctor is doing it now in the Dakotas. Did anyone else see that post? I will try to look back and find it. I do remember he trained under Dr.R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
