Re: Recommendation from my 2nd opinion...
Even if Breastlink is running the dbl blind, Dr. W may be helpful in directing you to just the TMD1. He is very well-informed and extremely compassinate.
That is basically what happened to me in So Ca. I was looking for answers and the place where I went to inquire ended up directing me to Dr. Pegram. Ended up in the right spot in a round about way.
