It was about 3 days after my surgery to remove kidney stones, when I found myself in terrible pain. it was a Saturday morning and my wife drove me to the ER. They found out I had a kidney infection. The ER personnel was great, but the group that did my surgery was not (the surgeon was from my old neighborhood and that is why I choose that group). I was left in the ER for more than 8 hours as they repeatedly left messages with the surgery group after hours service with no call back. I finally asked my wife to call my VIP doctor, Jim Hochwalt. It was early Saturday night and right away, Dr. Hochwalt called the ER. Within 30 minutes I was released and drove to pharmacy for my antibiotic that Dr. Hochwalt prescribed. VIP saved me from spending a Saturday in the ER. Thank you
