He and Demetris went in both groins to open a blockage. Afterwards he told us he would only be able to get up to 70% of the blockage. He recommended a doctor from Seattle Washington do this procedure on me. He said he was going to be down on the 10th to help them on their 10 worst patients. He said he could get it around 90% opening. He said the doctor from Seattle would go in one groin and they would go in the other groin and/or my arm. I said OK. On the 10th after 4 hours in me. Demetris came to my room and told us they could not get to the blockage. They recommended I go to Washington and let Lombardi do it at his hospital. When I asked what the difference would be by going up there. He said Dr Lombardi just advised during my procedure, it was against the law for him to do it here. He said we miss under stood. It cost me a lot of money and time from work. I would have never agreed to this if I had known that Lombardi was not going to do this.
