Hi all,

I am looking for information on a doctor whom a new lady described in her post in Santa Monica. No doctor name was given. I have PM'd the lady but am really anxious to have the information.

My specialist suggested that if there is treatment available in the US to go and get it there!!!!!!!!! Ahhhh hello good idea eh?? (sorry I am canadian)

She has also suggested that I may have scar tissue from the original surgery causing my pain ahhhhhhhhhhhh more hello!!! so I am searching for the light at the end of the tunnel. I did find this

not sure if this is the place or if anybody else knows of it or has been to see this guy.

I am hopeful, but doubt that Canada has the imaging technology as the usa does to see nerves and what is wrong with them.....however in looking at the fee schedule I am a little daunted.

The following represents a summary of some of our most frequently ordered procedures, and their estimates costs:
Open MR-guided Injection Piriformis / Pudendal: $2900 to $3900
Open MR-guided Injection TOS or Scalene: $3500 to $5000
Open MR-guided Injection Spine: $1900 to $3250
Piriformis Surgery: $8000 to $12,000
Brachial Plexus Surgery: $15,750 to $20,000
Re-Operative Spine Surgery: $20,000 to $35,000

oh well life is not worth living like this all the time.....there has to be hope. I have to believe that or why else continue.
you guys know what I mean right?????????????
Am I off my rocker or what????

love and hugs,
Victoria
