Re: Healthcare on St. John

Thanks for all the great advice negotiating a blood draw on St. John. I think I'll give Dr. Scott Hartshorn a call this week and see if I can get anything pre-arranged.

Healthcare on St. John

Will be on island during my chemo treatment follow- up. My doc has approved sending orders for subsequent blood draws if I can get them done at the Clinic. They, in turn, would fax results to my doc.

take the barge

We rented a car in St. Thomas this year...Dependable Car Rental. They picked us up at our hotel, took us to their facility where we picked up our car and left.

In 2009 we were fortunate to preview this villa while we were staying in Coral Bay. Having spent the past 4 yrs. vacationing in different villas in different locations on island...
