Deposition
I have my deposition for my malpractice case on Thursday. I am super nervous. Mine stems from a doctor cutting my nerves during a surgery. I meet with my lawyer tomorrow to review and talk about what is going to happen. But I am still really nervous about it.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

He works through Riley Hospital for Children though as well and MAINLY does his BPI surgeries on the little ones - that is how my doctor found him to do my surgery for my TBPI. He did an awesome job on me. I am sure you are...

Re: E-stim or Tens unit wanted will pay$$
I am still using mine or I would pass it along, but do you have insurance that could pay for yours after your doctor writes a new script for it? Mine rented mine for me and then after I had it for so many months of them renting it they paid it off and I just got to keep it. After it paid it off I ju...

Dr Mih in Indianapolis IN at the Indiana Hand and Shoulder Center is great! He works out of multiple hospitals in Indy, including Riley Children's Hospital. He did my surgery for my TBPI, but the way my doctor found him was becuase a colleague stated that he did BPI surgeries on kids at Riley. He di...
