    I thought I wanted a surgical option immediately but as we started scheduling and I fully comprehended the recovery time, I realized it was not a good time to undergo surgery at this time. The care team pivoted with no problem to a wait and check plan and got me scheduled for a visit that worked in my time schedule in 3 months. This was such a relief to me. If surgery is something I decide on later, I know that the team at Methodist Estabrook will be there for me.
