Congratulations! > I live in a top-tier city for this kind of medical attention What city is that, if you don't mind?

  Houston. We have shitty weather in the summer, and the landscape is so flat as to make pancakes look topographically interesting, but if you have cancer or need orthopedic surgery it's hard to find a better place to go.

    >Houston. A place that has hospitals the size of skyscrapers.
    • ubermonkey 4y ago
      Well, I mean, some of the hospitals ARE skyscrapers. Houston is weird because of its lack of zoning (well, it's weird for lots of reasons, but that's one of them). This contributed to the fact that there is no single "skyline" here. Certainly downtown has prominent towers, but there are also towers in the "Galleria Area", in the Greenway area, and of course in the Medical Center. However, my actual procedure was done in a fairly short (4 or 5 story) dedicated orthopedic facility not in any of those areas, but associated with Memorial Herman.

    Assuming there is only one Kragen, I am amused but not surprised to see you here.
