SO. I called Dr. Lazzarini's office to see what the heck was taking so long for the surgery scheduler to call! The office gave me the lady's number and transferred me to her voice mail. So I left my little polite message telling her who I was and asking her to give me a call back.
To my surprise, she actually did so fairly quickly. I wasn't sure if she would be in or not. A lot of times medical offices take ANY holiday as an excuse to not show up for work! She explained that they were looking for a place to actually do the procedure. I'm thinking...What?! How hard is it to find a place to do it?!
Apparently they don't do them at the surgical pavilion anymore? Not sure why, she didn't say. But then I'm like, well there's only a couple of hospitals to choose from. John Muir Walnut Creek, John Muir Concord, or Sutter Delta. And last time I checked, he didn't have privileges at Sutter! So is it really THAT hard to find a place to do it?! In my opinion: NO!
So, we'll give them a couple more days. I'm HOPING that this pushes them to finally pick somewhere. I mean seriously. You have patients, in pain, who want to be operated on...JUST DO IT!
