Very best doctors for TOS?
 
I know all the doctors are posted up above, but if you guys could pick the top 5 doctors for TOS (diagnosing), who would they be?

Diagnosing only, or treating & surgery also?
Location not an issue?

The surgeons that do TOS and related surgeries for the top pro ball players must be quite good, a lot of team money riding on a successful outcome..
They must be good at dxing also..
One is - Dr Pearl- http://www.texasvascularassociates.com/pearl.htm
http://www.texasleaguers.com/home/20...-epidemic.html


Quite a few members like Dr Dean Donahue.-- http://www.massgeneral.org/surgery/d....aspx?id=16342


If you find Dr names of interest in the sticky thread - you can do a TOS forum search to see what was posted about them.

im starting from scratch and willing to go anywhere.
 
I need proper DX as well as treatment, and I'm willing to go anywhere. Just need some names to start making calls and setting up a game plan.

Not sure if it's of help, but there is a list in the "Sticky" threads at the top of this forum.

DOCTORS & PTs List and saved PT info threads

I'm sure our TOS members who have experience with particular doctors will reply when they drop by the forum.

I would highly recommend Dr. Robert Thompson at Washington University/Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis. I found his diagnostic process to be far superior to anything I found in my local area, and I felt very confident having him perform the surgery I had in 2012 for treatment of my vascular (arterial) TOS. My surgery was successful and I am very pleased that I decided to go there.
