Clovis?? -

[Guest guest]

, can you remind me where Clovis is? It sounds SOO

familiar. I was born and raised in Orinda until first grade, then

spent the next 6 years in Lodi, and then junior high and high school

in Chico, before heading off to college in freezing upstate NY.

Came back to UCLA for graduate school, and have been here in

Southern California since 1988 with the exception of a year in

Virginia and a year in CT. I know a great doctor in Sacramento who

is treating a bunch of our northern CA RSS/SGA kids (and he

communicates with Harbison) and another great endo here in Los

Angeles (although we still fly our daughter to NY to see Harbison)

and another one in San Diego -- both of whom work with Dr. Harbison.

(Manhattan Beach - , almost 10 years old, GHT,

Periactin, Prevacid, Miralax, Arimidex) - but 63 pounds and about 55

inches tall!!!

,

Thanks so muchfor responding. Clovis is right next to

Fresno, in central CA. I grew up in ONtario and

Rancho Cucamonga down south, then met my husband in

Fresno and moved here about 8 years ago. I still have

family in so cal so the names of some doctors in that

area that will work with Dr. H would be wonderful!

Honestly I'm nervous about going to NY. I have had a

pretty bad experience with a doctor with no bedside

manner (My high risk OB), and I have heard that Dr. H

is pretty rough? Worth it though! What should I

expect? In regards to the area? Which airport do you

fly into? Any good hotels? Am I really going to be

in her office for 4 hours? and What all should I have

prepared to bring with me in re: to med. records? Now

does

have RSS? Has she had a g-tube or anything?

RSS?, )
