I've been to a few NUTS and have yet to see one that had anything productive to say. It's the handout and any questions, most of the appointment typing in their reports thatshould be done ontheir own time and yes .....always having to remind them of which surgery you have had. I'm thinking about becoming one.........hear the pay is pretty good for what you do. j/k
