I have TOS & a cervical rib - first of all P/T isn't going to do much for that & 2nd it's rare - I seriously doubt the storefront outfit has even heard of it.

I live in Omaha, NE. If anyone knows of a good doc for TOS in the area, please let me know!

Many thanks,

Most of the time an IME doc can not refer you for treatment, nor take you as a patient.
