Title: Saw the new Dr.
Post by: ruby52 on January 20, 2009, 01:09:15 PM
She's a Rheumy and greeted me so warmly.She's young and listened and said I asked great questions.I didn't bash my last Dr. but told her I deserved better and she agreed.It was a good appt. and I'm glad to dump my other one.She seemed knowledgable and said she was glad to work with me.She liked I used this message board for information.Yea,so far.

Ruby,

This is my second time trying to reply.  Anyway, I'm so happy for you.  Is this doctor in the Lorain Cleveland Cinic building?  Will she be able to treat you any differently or is it just nice having someone who cares?  I find the doctors there to be very thorough.

G'day Ruby, finding a doctor that is compasionate and listen to what you have to say, is a rare treasure indeed.  May you get the answers you are looking for.

Thank-you for your kind responses.Yes Anna she's in that building with numerous Rheumatologists.I'm doing well enough right now to stay on all my current meds but she assures me I can count on her if I run into problems which takes a huge stress off me.It's only a 45min. drive and I can get my bloodwork done right there and on the day of visit which is less hassle then what I have locally.I like that there are so many Drs. there in case she should leave or not know what to do for me if complications arise.How is your health?

Ruby,

Good, I love that place for their efficiency.  It is so nice to go across the hall and get labs done ect..   

Ruby, I posted under Kidney Cancer Surgery and told about my surgery and my prognosis.  Thank God, I made it through with a good prognosis.
