He does implants for spine and headache. <br /><br />He has an incredible personality (patient first!) and there is absolutely no waiting when you go to your appointment. If it is at 10:00 am, then you are seen at that time. All questions are listened to seriously and answered with respect.<br /><br />I've referred a friend to him already and she likes him too. She is in the process of seeing if she is a candidate.jdomalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174710622317551984.post-52052080174214774382009-12-31T11:19:31.252-07:002009-12-31T11:19:31.252-07:00Sue that's such good news!!!

I just spoke with the Medtronic rep in Canada and she gave some really helpful information. <br /><br />The procedure for ONS for pain management (back pain, knee pain, headache pain - it doesn't matter - therefore in Canada at least, the procedure is not considered "off label") is done in three places. <br /><br />London Ontario (Dr. Andrew Parrent), Montreal and Vancouver. I didn't get the docs names in Montreal or Vancouver because if I stay in my own province it's covered by my provincial health care. If I were to go out of province, my extended health care would pick up the balance, but why do that if I don't have to? <br /><br />Good news! <br /><br />word verification: trysuSuehttp://www.innerdorothy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174710622317551984.post-19621534617284001082009-12-28T08:26:24.867-07:002009-12-28T08:26:24.867-07:00Thank you, thank you!Thank you, thank you!Bannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10411396685109840881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174710622317551984.post-50591135006294943432009-12-28T06:46:39.043-07:002009-12-28T06:46:39.043-07:00My Doctor is Dr. Samer Narouze.

They do lots of implants there, spinal and otherwise.<br /><br />Dr. Dodick at Mayo's in Scottsdale AZ also does occipital stimulators.<br /><br />I couldn't find anyone in Missouri that does these, but someone had told me that they thought the University of Missouri Med Center in Columbia MO was going to start.WinnyNinny PooPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237156887425609665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174710622317551984.post-25951937875051250362009-12-27T21:26:05.829-07:002009-12-27T21:26:05.829-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.WinnyNinny PooPoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237156887425609665noreply@blogger.com
