I want to thank you for your prayers in helping to find a doctor, I have finally found one!
YIPEE!
He is not the one I wanted, but I have a feeling that it
is the one the Lord chose for me.
Come to find out he specializes in some of the conditions
that I suffer from.
His reviews are GREAT!
Thank you, Lord!

Thank Heavens...My sister had to change doctors several years ago..not happy about it either. But it saved her life. The new doctor saw things from another perspective. It was a blessing as well yours could also be too.

“He is not the one I wanted, but I have a feeling that it
is the one the Lord chose for me.”

That is a great perspective. I had the same experience when I went to two cornea specialists to get information about my keratoconus. Everything went wrong at the first visit. The staff was obnoxious, they made me pay even though I have met my out-of-pocket Max, and I called the insurance company while I was standing there and they didn’t care. I had to wait an hour. The doctor came in and seemed in a hurry. I found out later he had to do emergency surgery earlier in the day. He looked at my cornea map briefly and said he didn’t think I had keratoconus. Or that I had it but it had stabilized in my thirties. He said my vision problems were because of cataracts.

Now that I know that, there’s about three hundred questions I should have asked. My mind was in a fog because all my questions were about keratoconus so I just stared at him. He was really nice though, gave me some basic information, I did manage to ask if they were far enough along for surgery and he said yes, I have more than one of the issues that insurance will cover for surgery already. I couldn’t think of anything else to say and he asked if I had any more questions. I just sat there dumbly. He wasn’t pushy about surgery at all though. He did say I would probably get five months or so out of my new pair of glasses and then I would either need to have surgery or have diminished Vision until I have it.

But I felt extremely comfortable with him. And like he knew what he was doing and it would all work out. I felt that way with the doctor that did my strabismus surgery. There’s nothing like that feeling, of trusting someone that’s going to cut into you.

Then when I left I tried to get a follow-up appointment and I had to wait until March. They were snooty again.

But I felt so comfortable with him that I called and called for cancellations until I got an appointment the end of January.

Everything went wrong and yet I felt like he knew what he was doing and I would get good treatment. That had to be the Lord at work! Normally I don’t trust any doctor, I’ve been to too many bad ones.
