Today's task: Selecting an Oncologist.
Choice 1, the only Oncologist in town. We've heard we are lucky to have ONE, and that he is good, but patients are not always satisfied with his bedside manner. They say they are sometimes unclear what is happening or why, contributed to by his lack of explanation and/or his heavy accent. As of tonight, Bonnie has an appointment with him for tomorrow. (Wednesday)
Choice 2, the popular Ogden Oncologist. It turns out he is a relative (Cousin twice removed? I have never been sure how to calculate that.) We have also heard good things about him from friends of patients, and glowing reviews from his receptionist to boot. Things to the effect of: "People have gone to the Mayo clinic and they sent them back, saying "Why come here when you have a fabulous Dr right at home?" So he gets good reviews and seems more welcoming being in the family and of the same religion. Bonnie has an appointment with him for Thursday.
Once a Dr. is chosen, the plans should begin to fall into place and more posts will follow.
