Cathi,
I need to ask for a friend that is too embarrassed to ask, but what about those patients that were left behind after he went to California?  Will they all be contacted and asked to follow up again in KY?

That is a very good question.  We were told at our clinic that we are patients for life.  And while I don't expect my doctor to stay in Nashville forever... I surely would not want to have to travel everywhere because his office relocates every few years.  That would be a wonderful concern as I see too many who say "My surgeon left; I have no aftercare."

You know I would love to consider having my surgery with Dr. Husted-- but the Lake Cumberland Hospital has a lot of poor ratings.  I wouldn't want to have my surgery there.
