My husband Jorge has been diagnosed with a 27mm AN. After much investigation we have decided on House Ear at L.A. Living in Mexico City makes it a little difficult to know someone who has been operated at HI. (I´m so gratefull I foun this Forum, all this testimonials and info have give us peace).
What I ask for you is What Doctors do you reccommend at House Ear? What Team did you use (Neurologist, Neurotoligist, etc)
Thank You for Reading this entry
Sincerely

Liliana,

I think if you have decided as to “what� approach i.e.: translab, retrosigmoid, middle fossa ….or radiation and clarify this you might get more responses. Each doctor at House has their own specialty or preferred treatment approach…

SORRY YOU DIDN´T UNDERSTAND WELL MY QUESTION. WE KNOW THE KIND OF OPERATION HE IS HAVING (INCISION BEHIND THE EAR). WHAT I WAS ASKING IS IF YOU COULD HELP ME BY RECCOMENDING A DOCTOR AT HEI.
THANKS

P.S. FORGIVE MY BAD GRAMMAR IN ENGLISH

Well if you want a translab Dr. Brackmann is your man. (He is the most experience neurotologist in the world- and at age 70 still a very spry and capable man)

Dr Swartz is reputable in the retrosigmoid

And Dr House is known for the middle fossa…

DeLa Cruz is also world renown although I am not sure his “exact� specialty is.

Here is their staff link

It still depends on “what� surgery you want done at HEI– being that the translab and the retrosigmoid are both behind the ear.

This link explains that more

Once you tell us “which� surgery than the patients who were at HOUSE for their surgeries - can help you more.

Don’t worry about you English grammar– we are still here to help.
