Hmmm...St. Lukes will call her? I thought St. Lukes would require her to call them. Well, if they don't call her on September 13, she can always call them. Goiod luck! :thumbs:

I know when my fiancee and daughter went the first time on 07/05/2010 they were there all day, i would say it depends how many people are there and are in front of them.

Ok, fiancee passed medical and St Lukes reschedule her Interview for September 24th 2010 at 8:30 am.
