So I finally have the date for MEETING my new neurosurgeon. November 12th.
Hes supposedly a cervical specialist, but I'm incredibly nervous.
Also he looks like Tim Curry so I'm even more nervous.
Update****
Fuck that guy. Nope. Just cancelled my appointment immediately and found someone else.
A quick Google search and I found more negative reviews than I've ever seen in my life. Not to mention multiple malpractice cases where he has left broken pieces of tools in spine.
Yes he won all of the court cases, but there are enough of them that I ain't letting doctor beelzebub near my neck for all the chocolate sprinkles in the world.
Not. At. All.
I now have an appointment set up with a nice guy with good reviews for november 26th.

Is that a rocky horror reference?
@LadyAlyxandrea Yes!
Oh, and all my best wishes for a good outcome.

Good for you. And we can, for the most part, be thankful for the internet to do searches as I am sure you properly did. When my oldest child was little, preschool, pre internet, we discovered by word of mouth that his pediatrician had a few lawsuits and one at the time (we were in college in a town we were not from)
