Hi Sheri
Would you recommend him as a surgeon?? I really like him. I just saw him for a follow up last week and he recommended a "first rib resection and brachial plexus neurolysis decompression." I just had another scalene block on the left and pain was instantly gone and still is (nearly 48 hours later) so the physiatrist told me I would have a good result with surgery.

Did you have surgery at Overlake? How many days in the hospital? Recovery time? I'm thinking of having this done in late April/early May. If I can get relief like I did from the scalene injection, the surgery would be worth it to me.

My docs all tell me Ombrellaro is the guy to do it in Seattle.

Thanks!
Diane
