Dr. K was everything people have said. Warm, kind and great explaining the revision surgery with colored markers. Only 4 days now until surgery, but I am a lot less anxious after talking to him. Only thing is, full liquid diet on Sunday means no wings while watching the Super Bowl!

The ONLY thing that got me through the sudden, almost paralyzing case of bad nerves I got as a pre-op was knowing I had the best surgeon in Dr. K. I think if I would have gone with my original surgeon (in another state) I might have backed out of getting the DS. It is so rare to find a surgeon who has such superior surgical skills AND a great rapport with patients. Wait till you see him in action when he does his rounds post op. Of course he probably won't be wearing the bow tie then, but you'll get more of that at your post op visit.

Also, good luck with the pre-op prep. All in all, prolly better than the clean-out crap the day before.
I got really high and really loopy on the liquid diet, so be careful. I got to the point I could not think and could not drive (I took myself off the road). Be careful there.
