You make an excellent point with this line "It also sounds like he would be the type to tell you if you do need to see someone else, so many doctors's egos won't allow them to do this." I definitely got this same impression from him. I just had a good feeling about him in general. I tend to ask a LOT of questions, no matter what the subject, & I really appreciate the professionals that take the time to answer honestly, completely and in a way that doesn't feel like they're 'talking down' to me.
They didn't say how much it would be if both knees were done, just that is would be a little more. I guess it may not be double the cost of one because they don't have to use more anesthesia/drugs, no additional hospital stay, no extra pre-op work, etc. but, again, I'm just guessing (& hoping lol). |
You sound like me, I don't calm down when doctors say things like, "Relax, he'll be fine," I calm down when they answer all my questions in a satisfactory way, without patronizing me; that's what gives me the confidence.
