First Consultation -

Hi folks! I have my first consulation schedule on Thursday and I am also going to be meeting with a dietician on that day. Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect? The whole process is supposed to take 3.5 to 4.0 hours. ---Barb A

Barb, The surgeon is obnoxious, the nurse is a know it all, and the dietitian is judgemental. Other than that it will be alot of fun. Look forward to meeting you on Thursday. Dr. Stickler P.S. We also have a good sense of humor.

I wandered over here from the MS board cause I am originally from Jefferson County... You seem like a fantastic doctor. I have not seen any other surgeons posting on the message boards. That says alot for you! If I had not had surgery yet and was still in WV..I would use you!

OMG! This is the most hysterically funny post I've seen! As I read the first few words... I was thinking...'WHAT??!!' Looking forward to tomorrow morning as well... even more so now! ---Barb A

OK.. now that I've had my consultation... I'll have to say... It was the most enjoyable Dr visit I have ever had!
