Aaron, CRNA was fantastic. I asked for a little push of meds during the procedure and wam, it was over and I didn't even know it. Drugs are a wonderful thing. Josh (RN) and Kim (OR, RN) were also fantastic. They let me be my goofy self as they got me ready for the procedure and after during recovery. Thank you. Last, Dr. Bowen, proved once again that the rear end of the caboose was intact and functioning at 100%. See you on the flip side for the next dreaded prep. Dr. Pamayla Darbyshire, DHA
