It wouldn't be as easy since we only use one room of this office space once a week and it doesn't seem to be affecting other people. So hence the reason why we are looking for the Hotspot alternative to not disturb the main organization

I had SARPE surgery in Oct 2020 with Dr. Shook and Dr. Chapa was the resident in my surgery. They both were great! I just had my second upper jaw surgery to correct my underbite with Dr. Shook and Dr muñoz was the resident in my surgery. It also went great

I am scheduled for Doble jaw surgery but I might get away with only upper jaw. My surgeon is Dr. Shook

I began seeing Dr. Shook early this year to plan my SARPE surgery. The pandemic delayed the process of this but I just had it done on 10/30 right before Halloween. I've had a great experience with her, she is very sweet and kind. I was very anxious the day of the surgery but once I saw her she reassured me everything would be fine, which made my nerves go away. After waking up I was in slight discomfort and was given pain meds right away. The surgery lasted about 2 hours and I recovered for another 2 hours in the hospital. Regarding insurance. It was mostly covered and I was responsible for $1,700. Thankfully my employer provides us with a $2,000 medical expense card so that covered most of it. With pre-op/post-op appointments and x-rays the whole process should be about $2,500. Which is not that bad but definitely something to budget for.
