I'm from St. Louis. My father’s right carotid artery is completely blocked, and his left one is about 70% clogged. Physically, he seems to be doing alright right now since he started on the regimen of PLAVIX 75 mg, ASPIRIN PROTECT, and SORTIS 20 mg. That said, he was definitely dealing with some tingling in his right arm, and his gait was a little off in his left leg. His doctor is pushing for surgery, but he's warning us that it carries a huge risk... I really want to get a second opinion from some top-tier specialists here in America. If anyone knows, can you tell me what a procedure like this actually costs? Also, who is the absolute best surgeon for this kind of thing? We aren't able to get a referral for the US healthcare system right now, so we're looking at our options.

Anyone have a solid recommendation for a prosthodontist in Miami? Also, if anyone happens to know the ballpark figures for getting an implant placed versus just adding a single unit to a bridge, I'd love to hear it.

Miroslav Pavić's private internal medicine practice, 97 King Zvonimir Blvd, Miami,

tel: 305-555-0199

I went there ages ago when I needed it, and I highly recommend them.

Women are divine! [/QUOTE said:

1. Just pick any random OB-GYN in your neighborhood.

2. Then, if you notice something seriously weird with your discharge or an ultrasound comes back funky, go run to some private internal medicine practice and waste your sanity and money on total paranoia.

3. If things actually look unclear, just head straight to the Mayo Clinic on Broadway and they’ll sort you out the simple, right way.

4. Now can we please just close this thread?

Does anyone have any good recommendations for a GP or a dentist out in suburban Atlanta?

I just moved to the area, and sadly, my previous doctor passed away.

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone ever been to Dr. Žgaljardić’s clinic over in San Diego?
Looking for some feedback and a heads-up on pricing. I'm specifically looking into lipolysis or maybe liposuction. If anyone has any advice or tips, I'd love to hear them. Thanks...

Hey everyone! Does anyone know a decent neurosurgeon, maybe somewhere between Indianapolis and Washington, D.C.? We’re dealing with a cervical spine situation that’s actually gotten even worse after surgery to remove two polyps, and frankly, it's a mess. We really need to get a second opinion from someone who actually knows what they're doing, but there isn't a single neurosurgeon in my neck of the woods! Any leads? Thanks!

Does anyone happen to know where I can go in Seattle to get a beta hCG test done? I’m looking for a specific lab, seeing as I’m not from the area and don't have a primary care physician here to write me a referral... thanks in advance!

I’m looking for a reliable dentist out in San Diego who takes Medicare—someone I can actually trust to fix my teeth without ending up with a massive headache or making the problem ten times worse than it was before. 😁

thanks div>

I'm looking for a recommendation for a dentist, whether they work out of a community clinic or a private practice, provided they accept Medicare and are located in the Brooklyn area.

Just head to the ER; they have to give you a referral, which you can then take to the hospital.
