Don's been to the Mayo three times. We had a specific doctor that we asked for and our wait was a month or two. It's been two years since we have been there. So far its my choice of all the places we have been. It is time once again for his annual exam. Since we aren't due for any trips we are going to try a doctor that is not a movement specialist. He is in Billings which is 240 miles away. The appointment is on the 15th. We do not have any movement specialist in Montana.
