Are we to assume that her practice will be in Easton only or at other U. of MD HCF’s on the Eastern Shore; we live in Chestertown but as this writer is in need of an overall orthopedist and am with the VA Community Care program here with Dr. Susan Ross as my PCP, Easton is not a problem to travel to, Thank you.
