Michele,
I am so encouraged by your story! I live in WA and am currently under care of DR. John Pryor in Everett. We are looking at a two level ADR and he is willing to perform it but I doubt my insurance will cover it. My brother was talking to his DR. About me. She apparently worked with Dr. Wohns and recommended him highly. I looked up his credentials and WOW!!!!! I might have to make a trip to Puyallup! It's only about an hour from me.
I don't believe DR. Pryor has done a two level, or at least he said he has never seen insurance cover it. It is encouraging to hear Dr. whons has!!
How was your experience there? Do you live in Wa??
