So here’s my question… Why couldn’t my neurosurgeon guide me to a major resource like this? Does that mean he’s not into patient education, or even that he’s not keeping up with what major brain tumor researchers are doing? I asked him if there was anything natural I could and he said, “I just take them out”. My doctor always sends me to the very best consultants but this neurosurgeon is clearly only the best at removal, not at pre-surgery management.
Just a little frustration with the medical system coming out.
