Re: How do I find a surgeon?

Hi --

I think you should start with either Dr. Gross of SC or Dr. Mont in

Baltimore. They have done the most here in the US. There are others. Dr.

Kennedy I

think in Florida. Also Illinois -- just read these messages and you will hear

the names over and over.

I am scheduled for Gross June 3....

Good Luck.... Margo

If you are familiar with DR s already. He is part of the study

as well. He does resurfacing at good sam hospital.

> Thanks for the information. Baltimore works better for me, which

hospital? Do you have a phone #. Is it in trial or has it been

approved? Surgery scares me and I am doing all I can to avoid it

for as long as possible. I am now getting synvisc shots, last

tomorrow, and it seems to be working for now. I am on the

replacement track and will not be able to put surgery off for long.

I got a cortisone shot in Baltimore at Good Samaritan Hospital from

Dr s/Dr Rose(radiologist) 16 months ago, it worked

wonderfully for 14 months.
