"I went to see Dr. T. on January 20, 2003. I found him to be very proffesional and very helpful in answering my questions. He did not pull no punches with me; he told me straight up of what to expect before, during, and after surgery, and what he expected of me. He has performed a lot of this type of surgery, and I feel that I am in confident hands. I now have to play the insurence waiting game.
I have already head the phsyic e-valuation, I don't have a gall bladder, and I have already had an echo-cardiogram.
I am right now looking at June or July, and may be sooner if the insurence comes through. July 13, 2003 Dr. Thirlby saved my life! I have nothing but the best to say about this man; he's very profesional but yet very compasionate. I would stand on a mountain top and yell out this man's name if it would help more people get this surgery; because he IS the very best!
