    My name is [NAME REMOVED] and I have been a patient of Dr Carey for two years. I can actually say this because with Dr Carey's care, guidance and intelligence I am still breathing air on Terra firma and not amongst the angels. DR Carey has literally saved my life and improved the quality of my existence here on Terra firma. The heavens can certainly wait for me to finish my work (read: terrorizing) here on earth thanks to Dr Adrienne Carey and her team.
