" 6/13/03 I had my consult today with dr Cook.was very impressed by the way he answered all of my question's and his nurse Fran and his staff are really great,Lisa said she will turn in my paper work to bcbs (blue care) Monday and should know in a few days if they clear me for surgery. I have heard about the nightmare of ins wait for approval so I plan to stay busy around the clock untill I hear from them or Lisa. On a scale of 1 to 10 I rate Dr Cook and his staff a 10 I will update again when or if I get approve for surgery. 6/23/03 "BCBS" "APPROVED ME" Lisa just phone me wow in just 2 days that was fast.so "EXCITED" It will soon be here I got a Surgery Date 8/13/2003
