« on: June 12, 2006, 07:47:23 pm »
I have been referred to Johns Hopkins by my ENT. Dr. Minor.
Who have you all used?

Any experiences at Johns Hopkins?
I just wanna find the best doctor for me...

Hi Maren,

Great to see you researching and reaching out for info.. you have certainly come to the right place.

I am familiar with the reputation of John Hopkins and you really are in terrific hands there. As for the physician, I am not familiar (had Cyberknife here in Boston at Beth Israel Hospital 2 mos ago).  You may also want to check the "Physicians Info" forum here... there may be good reference info there for you as well.  Link for the Physcian's Info forum:  http://anausa.org/forum/index.php?board=6.0

Hang in there... We're all in this together.

I'll be seeing Dr. Weingart at JH to rid me of this thing.  Of all the docs I interviewed, he was by far the one that made me feel most comfortable.

My only beef with JH is the time it takes to get a damn appointment set up, but I know they're busy and scheduling can be a pain.  But hey, I'm a patient person.

3+cm AN, hit the chopping block 5 Sep 06 at the Skull Base Institute

Was 4.5cm at it's largest point, completely removed.  All motor functions normal.  Only complaint is SSD on the left side, which was expected anyway.

chopper,  Love the signature line! :)  You sound in great spirits and ready to put this all behind you!  BTW, the patients need to be the pains that we can be! If it weren't for us, their (insert proper noun here ie: house/car/summer home/boat/school loans, etc) wouldn't/couldn't be paid off! :)

Hang in there!
