Puzzle Pieces

Calling all patients and parents in the practice. I had purchased six train puzzles for the office with inserts of the letters ‘MacKoul.’ Almost all the pieces – 42 in all – are no longer here. If you or your child left the office with a piece, it would be greatly appreciated if you could bring it back next time you are in or call and let us know you have it. The company will not send me new letters – only the full chairs and stools with the letters. The children love these puzzles, please return them if they happened to follow you home.

Thank you,
Dr. Annette
