Welcome to the family! Dr.C did my GBS almost 3 years ago! My life is better because of him and what he did for me!

I am super excited and nervous at the same time. Dr. Callery will be doing my surgery so I know I am in good hands.

You are in the best of hands! Dr. Callery is an amazing surgeon and an even more amazing human being!

So humble, so gracious! I have the utmost respect for him and his staff. I love Kelly!

Thanks everyone for your warm welcome! It still doesn't seem real. I wasn't expecting to get approved so soon. So I have been at the gym everyday just to make sure I don't gain weight and get cancelled. I just can't wait to go shopping in a regular store!!!
