"My doctor's name is Jacobo Joffe, and he works out of the Scarborough Grace Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Actually, I got his name through an e-mail that came to me from someone on this site -- thanks, Rosanne!
He was very adamant that I understand everything about the surgery and make a completely informed consent, up to and including the fact that there is a very small (less than 1%) risk of death from the procedure. His office staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and supportive -- I didn't feel rushed at all.
I can hardly wait to start my new life!"
