It differes if you get one dr with small fingers vs lg fingers. You wouldn't think there would be that much of a difference tho, weird! I'd go back to the dr you know and are comfortable with. That includes your regular hospital :)

Maybe they're wrong? Go to the same hospital you went to before,  maybe they are better?
