On anothe note.

I have been to LRGH Emergency Room in years past as a patient.

My treatment in the LRGH ER was prompt, professional, and excellent treatment.

The doctors appears to be imcompetent. Both parent were misdiagnose by two difeerent LRGH doctors. Second opinions, one at Concord Hospital and the other at Winson-Salem Baptist got them on the right track although it was too late.

I broke my left humerous at Gunstock, The Ski patrol was top notch, the ambulance was excellent even though I am still shocked from the $5,000 bill. At LRGH, I was in the ER for 5 hours until an orthopedician arrive. The orthopedician wants to do immediate surgery to insert a pin and wire the bones together. Fortunately my friend who was with me is a doctor from Manchester and told me right away they don't wire bones anymore. I'm glad I seek second opinion form NH orthopedics in Manchester. A titanium plate and 13 titanium screws held 13 shattered pieces together. I'm back skiing and my arm is as good as ever.

The local orthopedic was p.oed by the way. He refused to prescribed pain killers for my trip to Manchester.

I have broken a lot of bones and I cannot imagine how one breaks a humerous into 13 pieces. That bone is just not that big. I sincerely hope that once you found a good ortho your recovery was quick and complete.

I have the x-rays to prove it. I fell on boiler plate and the bone just shattered! Dr Wang is top ten doc for years on NH magazine. He specialized in reconstructing hands. Four and half hour surgery, 5 months rehabilitation and I am back crashing gates!

I highly recommend Dr. Wang.

Instead of taking a $5,000 ambulance ride, most likely I would have called a taxi from a payphone or hitch-hiked with a sign that read "LRGH - $10" and would probably get a ride pretty quick. $5,000 seems way over-priced? What up with that?
