No offense but, Dr. McIntosh has been the only one to reply to me. I
think that if you would like to address using Dr.'s names it should be
in a seperate post not in a post where someone is honestly scared about
something. I have contacted my dr and right now there is nothing to do.
I thought someone could just reassure me or something. I am extremely
impressed with Dr. McIntosh and find his knowledge and demeanor to be
amazing.
