Hello

Hi everyone!!! I'm new to this but am looking forward to my first appointment with Dr. Cole. The earliest I could see Dr. Cole is July 12th. I'm on the cancellation list in case someone doesn't keep their appointment, but from what I understand everyone else is on the cancellation list too. I have asked my primary doctor about this surgery for years but he refused to consider it for me. Then I decided to ask him again last month and he gave me the referal. I was in shock!!! I figured it meant it was time for me to do it. My daughter had the surgery in March of this year and she is doing GREAT. I'm not scared or nervous about it, at least not yet, probably because it's something I've wanted to do for a long time. I'm tired of trying on clothes and they are too tight.
