Beth,
You stated earlier in this thread that Dr. Annest does outpatient clinics in OK? Where at? and does your use of OK mean the same as mine-Oklahoma? |

Sorry Sandy, that was a goof on my part - knew it was another one of those big wide open places! He sees patients in Imperial Nebraska and Colby Kansas as well as two other rural locations in Colorado. More info is at www.vascularinstitute.com under rural outreach.
I don't know if he goes to to NE and KS every month or if he alternates - but there is no vascular surgeon on staff at the hospitals he visits, and it makes for a very long day for him, so it's neat that he does it. And maybe closer for some TOSers - although you'd have to call the office to see if he would actually be ok with doing TOS surgery at one of these hospitals, since neither he or any of his staff wd be around to keep tabs on you post-op (except day of surgery). Hadn't thought of that - but I'm sure they stay in touch with him about his other surgical cases. Never hurts to ask! Sorry for the mix-up! beth Last edited by Chemar; 10-16-2007 at 07:23 AM.

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who replied, I truly appreciate it. I have decided to wait on the surgery, I am working with my ins. to try and see a specialist hopefully at the Mayo Clinic in MN.

Why Mayo? So far we haven't heard of any good TOS doctors there. MelissaLH has some recent info re: Mayo; u may want to PM her. If you're requesting a referral to a specialist why not make it to one of the doctors in Denver?
