julie k(preop surgery on jan 31st!!)
Hi Julie!!
My surgery is scheduled for 1/10/05 with Dr. Kolli. He is wonderful - I had to travel a bit farther to go to him........he is in Niagara Falls, NY, but well worth it!! He does the laporscopic procedure, which is what I wanted and best of all - I had my first appt with him 2 weeks after I called. From start to finish (surgery date) - has been only a couple months. Can't beat that!! I know of Posner and Carawana (sp?) were both 9-10 month wait to see. I didn't want to wait that long so I looked into Dr. Kolli - who by the way is an awesome caring man and his staff are all wonderful!
Good luck to you also and Happy Holidays!

jen, actually my 1st appontment was nov. 17th with caruana and i could have a had a surg. date of jan. 7th but i needed to get things together. i thought the same thing actually untill i called the office even the office said they have heard that!!!! lol im going with caruana for a few reasons but i was going between him and psner for a while not know what one to pick . with posner tho i do believe it is a wait i know someone going thru him ang i started a few months after her and she still doesnt have a date. best of luck with surgery if you need to chatt just email me or we can exchange #'s.
