Long way off, but we went to Santa Imaging in California, Dr. Uzler.

Sandy,

Isn't Missouri, closer than NY. I have a lyme dr in MO who is fabulous.

[ ] Need A Brain Spect Scan

Hello all...I don't post very often, but do gather tons of wonderful info for

my best friend who is a 30+ year LD.

We are in Cincinnati, OH area and travel to Dr. B. My friend is in need of a

spect scan. The big problem is that the machine at Columbia Presbyterian in NYC

is 'down' more than it is 'up'.

This past Sunday we flew to NY, saw Dr. B on Monday, went to Columbia Tuesday

for a scheduled scan only to find the machine was 'down'...maybe 'up' the next

day...we stayed another night...changed plane reservations, etc. and the machine

is still 'down'.

Since we do not have LD in Ohio, getting a scan anywhere around here would be

of no value. We have wonderful hospitals...but remember...we don't have LD

around here...so our docs are not familiar with and do not want to learn about

LD.

Fortunately we have found a doc willing to re-write Dr. B's rx's, which is a

HUGE blessing...but we really need the scan.

So...my question for all of you...have any of you had a scan at a hospital

other than Columbia Presbyterian in NYC? Travel is not a problem...I'll take

her anywhere.

Thank you for any info you have.

Blessings and Hugs

Come on down to sunny Florida, we have them here! Just get a script from your

Doc and you can make your own appointment.

Florida...hmmm...I do have relatives in the Tampa area so would not need a

hotel. You are in West Palm Beach area? Did you get your disability...or

do I have you confused with someone else?

Missouri...if it is Dr. C...he does not accept Medicaid patients.

Thank you for the replies!

Hugs and Blessings
