Re: Cataract Removal

Patricia,

I don't know what to tell you about changing doctors.  The use of laser
surgery is wide-spread here in Indy and has been for some time. Changing
doctors is alway a traumatic experience for me, so I appreciate your
predicament.  Perhaps you would feel better if you called around to see what
other doctors in your area are doing, and if your doctor is out of line
consider a change.  Sorry not to be more helpful.
