I am sorry that you all had negative experiences with Dr. Grubb. I've only seen him one time, but he was absolutely amazing. Yes, it took me about six months to get the appointment, and I drove about 4 hours each way. But, he spent nearly 5 hours with me! Plus, he sent me three envelopes with medical journal articles, a book on fainting for the lay public and other materials. I must have seen him on a good day. There were no other patients -- he was on service, but somehow I had an outpatient appointment that he kept. I would definitely keep the appointment. You can always cancel it closer to the date. Lisa
