Roger De La Torre

"I just had my pre-op with Nancy and Dr. De La Torre. NANCY WAS AWESOME! She gave it like it was and went throught he surgery step by step. Dr. De La Torre is a surgeon... what I mean is that I didn't think his "bedside manner was lacking" but he seemed to lack that people quality that Nancy has perfected... but that was to be expected. I wasn't bothered by it one bit. He seemed very caring and concerned (although I was the first one back). He asked a few questions and off I went to schedule a date. I am a bit concerned that I am in KC and this surgery is in St. Louis. He mentioned that people come far and wide to get this surgery, yet they INSISTED that I come back for a 4 week visit. I have just taken 2 weeks off work and now i have to take more time off just for that? Won't a phone call do??? OH well, I guess they know what they are doing! I am in GREAT hands!"
