We purposefully picked our plastic surgeon for a few reasons:
1. He denied he was leaving his practice
2. He wasnt plannig on retiring soon
3. He had good background and experience
It was important to us for Riley to have continuity of care. So much for that. We got a call saying that Dr. Goldstein is leaving the practive and is also living the valley and is no longer seeing any patients. No letter or any warning at ll. Im really bummed because when you find a good physician, especially with something that is so specialized. It's not like I can pick some Joe Smoe physician. That was a little bit of a set back so we are a little bummed out. Our case manager is helping us find another one so we are keeping our fingers crossed. There is another plastic surgeon who is in the same practice so our case manager is looking into the availability of him.
And thanks Courtney for the advice. I didn't even think about giving him avacado but that is filled with healthy fats so I will give that a try.
So sorry to hear that...our pediatrician recently left as well, and she was so awesome. :( You will find the right fit, just use your resources, and go with your gut instincts! Prayers for an easy search...
