Angela Wright said:As far as I know, Rebro is basically the only facility in the US that has a Gamma Knife. There might be some in places like Canada, Mexico, or maybe even overseas, but honestly, we’ve had some pretty nasty experiences trying to get help from certain neighboring countries when we begged them to take our people in for chemo treatments using drugs that aren't even registered here. Most of the time, they just brushed us off, saying they don't take American patients, so don't be shocked if you hit a wall there too. We haven't dealt much with Mexico, but things are usually smooth with Canada. Try Googling clinics in Canada or Switzerland. Just keep in mind that Medicare will likely give you a hard time approving funds for the surgery, regardless of the fact that it's subsidized domestically or that the Gamma Knife is currently out of commission over here. This procedure isn't cheap.
Good luck, and let us know how it goes.
Thanks for the quick reply. All I have is this info from the national news about one hospital being "Karolinski" in Stockholm and another being somewhere in "...Germany, Krefeld..."
How do I actually get in touch with them? Or more specifically, is there any other fresh info on where I should reach out to doctors?
Thanks for listening... really hoping for some help here.
