Thickiest2Thick 38 Posted June 19, 2012 No I was hoping that everyone's positive energy would help me make it happen. I'm so ready for this. It will happen...u waiting for a call? This is for ur consult right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nina88 73 Posted June 19, 2012 It will happen...u waiting for a call? This is for ur consult right? Yes it's for the first consult with the surgeon. I spent all day checking all the doctors at the West Los Angeles kaiser and came to the conclusion that I feel confident that all the doctors there are capable of doing this procedure. So tomorrow morning I'm going to call and see if I can't get the appointment with the doctor that has the least wait time till surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked to be referred there. If I wasn't referred from fontana, I would have to wait until the hub called me. Who knows how long that would take. It seems like kaiser fontana has the slowest process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
