I am also here in ATL. I've only had PN since June of last year. I tried 2 in my community, then I went to Emory. The bozo I saw there spent most of the appt banging away on his computer and rarely looked at me. He and his assistant didn't impress me so I gave up and went to John Hopkins. I'll keep going up there as long as I can afford it. The doc at Hopkins and my local PCP work well together covering my treatment and so far I have had to only go to Balt. twice.

Sorry I'm not more positive. I'm sure there are very good neuros here in ATL, I just got tired of expending time looking...
