who had an excellent reputation in the community. He had trained many of the neurologists in my county. He was my 2nd opinion and I really was excited to see him. The pros were he was a real gentleman and took his time with me. The cons were he was old school, not current or willing to be and told me that all my symptoms were because I crossed my legs. If I stopped doing that it would all go away. I do believe he was a good doctor at one time, but that time was gone. Because he was top doc other neurologists on the same chain would not go against his diagnosis and it has caused me problems.
I had my 1st nerve conduction study done at my GP's. My primary neurologist looked at it and told me we would have to do another as it was not complete enough for him. My question to you is will your insurance cover another one? If not you might want to wait. It is my understanding that many doctors prefer there own tests.

He's been around for a very long time and was considered a good neurologist, most people state it's time for him to retire. I was just afraid that age might be an issue. He does walk with a cane, but appears to be in decent shape.
