Welcome

It's a hard decision. You are doing your homework. You have to with TOS.

I do like Dr. Atasoy, at Klinert Kutz in Louisville, Ky. He recommended the rib resection through the armpit for me, and scalenectomy. He seems to be very knowledgeable and skilled, although he is getting up in years.

here is a list of surgeons on this board

There's lots of info and willing people to answer questions.

Keep in touch.

2) What is the approximate cost of the surgery (we couldn't find this anywhere)

Thanks so much!
