APPROVED!!!

After 2 years to the month, I'm finally approved AND scheduled for my surgery!!!! I am just totally overwhelmed! I was expecting a fight from the state but they approved it on the first try! I go in on May 17th. Less than 2 weeks! So anyone with SAGA they have been great! I go next week for my appointment with the anesthesiologist and my ultrasound, ECG and all that fun pre-op stuff, then next Friday I'll go for a class at Dr Giles' office to be sure I have all the information on aftercare and all that I need. To anyone looking for a surgeon, please consider Dr Giles and his staff. The new folks at the new office have been absolutely FANTASTIC!!! They got off to a bit of a rough start but alot of that was because of stuff that UConn was making difficult. Thanks for all the support and I'll keep you all posted!!! Heather

Heather, I remember that phone call. I really think it was the MOST important call of my life. I cried my eyes out! Good luck with everything, but I hear good things about Dr. Giles so you don't need luck!!! Love, Tammy
