Hi Joseph! Since my MVR surgery is coming up soon I would like to take your offer on chatting with me, so I can ask you some questions about your experience. If you are still up to it, please let me know so we can exchange phone numbers. Thanks!
Dylan, I'm happy to talk with you. Also, not worried about giving you my number here as it's easily findable in so many places on the web. Call me at 917-440-2000 at any time. It's my mobile number.
Thanks for your prompt response, Joseph! I'll give you a call later today.
