Flori - that is too funny! My PS is Kulber as well. And I agree about Silberman, I checked around before my bilat because he doen not contact with insurance cos - after hearing of his reputation from other surgeons I decided to just go with him. I love his manner and support staff too.
11 yrs - wow! Did you do surgeries for the local recurrences? What is the normal protocol?
