Dr. Millet's site is in Spanish. I would appreciate any help you could send my way.

S. standards...and would be convenient, as well. As a former Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist myelf, I think most of these would be entirely treatable by an Advanced Nuse Practitioner, but our medical costs and the complexity of it here in the U. S. has just become unbelievable and the quality, frankly, SUCKS. I think the idea of having tetanus shots offered by the personnel from the medical society is fantastic.
