Thermography is here!

Last weekend we went out to pick up and
get trained on our new thermography equipment. I was floored by how
sensitive it can be. I now have all the equipment up and running,
so you can call and set up your appointments. We'll start only
doing thermography on Fridays until we need to add more days. The
number to call for thermography is 734-332-6290, which is still
answered by the same people and you'll still come to the same
office.
If you're wondering what screening thermography can do, it is a great way to do non-invasive breast cancer screening (more info here) (preferably in addition to mammography, but also for people who don't tolerate mammography or for whom mammography otherwise isn't a good idea), find the source of pain and look for other irregularities. You can learn more here (yes, it's in New Zealand, but it's a great compendium of quality information) until I get my own information pages set up.

Wait times for new appointments

"The only ones who can claim to be above suspicion are those who are so much sought after that their cured patients are immediately replaced by fresh ones." -George Bernard Shaw, in the preface to The Doctor's Dilemma
Mr. Shaw was no fan of physicians. Would he have come to see me? Tough to say, but if the wait for a new patient appointment is anything to go by I should have satisfied his concern. The wait for new patients can be a few months, but give me a call regardless.
