Mar 07, 2025
Still waiting for written notes after 4 days :-( It was a 2nd opinion appt so I didn't receive instructions, but I expect those will be in his notes. I'm a little annoyed that it's taking so long for me to see them because I still need to think about what he suggested before committing to Tx
