Re: Exercise after surgery?

Hey, hope everything goes well with your surgery man! I was also worried about the same aspect in my life and how it would be affected by undergoing surgery.

Re: Kaiser Surgeon in Sunset

Hey, I actually had a great experience with Dr. Wilson and the team at Kaiser! The nurses were amazing and were always willing to assist you when you needed it.
