Bles- just looking up Dr. Petelin. And came across your question.

I have my annual appoint with him middle of next week. He did my breast cancer bioposy-he was my second opinion. As the other surgereon didn't even present me with a flyer packet to show you - Dr. Petelin will take his time in his office and explain very thing about what will be going to happen - Other words he talks.
NO cancer 2 years & free
This time I am going to ask him for a second opinion on another proceedure of which he did not do. but I want to know what he thinks that needs to be done.

.....My first empression of him oh, he was going to be a cockeything. He probably thinks hes Gods gifts to earth.

NOT THAT WAY AT ALL. He will only deal with S.m.m.c. n(hospital) not with the day surgery building across the holler.

The day of surgery for me. Just a biospsy. The surgery room that we were scheduled to ,was running late. So that put him behind. He came out and visited with me just a minute, to check how I was doing and told the nurse give her something to calm her down. (He had put is hand down my arm. with that he noticing I am shaking very nerviously

)I was out to lalala land.

Are you looking to do the LGB. - I am so tempted to ask him myself.!!

Sorry so lenghtly. Oh pluss the office staff is wonderful too.
