Dr Clair is the head vascular surgeon at the clinic. I have bilateral TOS. The first surgery was the Transaxillary approach. I am still having some issues so he will be going in using the supraclavicular approach. The transaxillary approach is preferred by a lot of surgeons, however there are issues with both approaches. Everyone with TOS is different and there is know best way to know which approach is better for you. Dr Clair is a very good surgeon and I trust him.

What states in the NE USA are close to you?
It will help us to give better suggestions.

I see you found the Drs & PTs sticky thread.

Click a members username on a post for options on messaging, or do search for that member ,then on their profile you can send a message either a visitor message or a private message. visitor messages are viewable to others and private messages are private.
