I am considering last minute pull out as recommended by all you bros.
Now I have to decide:: great reputation vs personal experience. Which chance to take?

When did/are you having surgery? Myself and sirsarcastic both had Dr. Brock and were implanted December 14, 2017. If you have questions or we have questions for you, we can message each other, (I hope).

I don't know your specific problem but if you are waiting to hear from him, I would suggest trying him again. He has NEVER not returned my phone call or email. He is a very bust guy but does answer calls and emails. Give him a chance, he is a gifted surgeon.

I would be hounding that doctor.

I also support your canceling the surgery if he can't keep in touch with you.

Understandably doctors are busy. They have other patience to attend to.
But there should be a team of medical professionals assisting him. i.e. nurse assistance, care providers etc.
They should be keeping you and him in contact with one another.

Keep us posted on if you get a hold of him. I'd call his office every 10 minutes til her replied. lol.

I wonder if newbie left a reason for his call... Dr, Brock always answer questions if you tell him why you are calling. A great deal of the calls that his office gets, can be handled by Susan, his secretary. Dr. Brock also is an international professor. I emailed him one day this past summer and I got a message back about 15 minutes later saying here is the quick answer... bla, bla, bla... I am currently in Australia instructing on a course and I will be back at the end of the week, I will call you and better answer your question then. :)
