Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 2,219 | So I went for my 3 1/2 year checkup today at Fox Chase Cancer Center and brought about 100 OCF brochures with me as I always do. The waiting area is loaded with books, brochures and just tons of information on all forms of cancer.
This time the young lady volunteer at the desk with all the brochures said "Great, your the dentist, aren't you?" I couldn't deny it, so I said "Yes". She told me that they give out the brochures all the time and people have commented that they are great and very helpful. It made me feel very good.
And the by the way, I got a clean bill of health and the doc said, "Lets make it 9 months this time."
So all in all it was a great day!!!
