Meet the Doctor




Neurosurgeon Charles Rich and Ricky, May 16
   Ricky had a big day yesterday.  Jimmy and Aunt Vickie took him to Salt Lake City (with Ricky very carefully positioned behind the driver's seat) to have his staples removed.   Ricky has a follow up appointment in a few weeks so yesterday's time was mainly to remove the staples and check for any sign of infection.  The doctor said so far everything looks great.

His neurosurgeon, Dr. Charles Rich, is one of the best.  He had never performed a surgery exactly like Ricky's because it is so rare but had done 10 very similar surgeries.  All with positive outcomes. 

We are blessed to live in an area with such skilled medical staff.  Dr. Rich graduated from Harvard Medical School in Boston and specializes in neurological surgeries.  He and his team took great care of Ricky.
