Good craniocervical pain dianostic doctor or clinic?

[blackdog38]

Hi, I have been diagnosed with craniocervical instability.  In my quest for treatment, I am wondering if anyone can give me advice on a good place to go to get a diagnosis of exactly where the pain is originating? (so I know which treatment route is best).  I guess what I am looking for is someone who can either diagnose, and is willing to spend the time to find the source(s) of the problem, either with diagnostic testing or with manual hands-on testing of the joints and ligaments in my neck.  Preferably someone who does the latter, as I know there are many tests that can be done by orthopedists or physical therapists but am having a tough time finding a place to get it done.

Thanks in advance
Kevin

you might try a physiatrist (sp?) they can perform the first tests and refer you to a neurologist

I would look up  a NS that specializes in ur condition.Not knowing where u live, it is diff to suggest where u might go. If near NY...check out TCI......if near CO try Dr John Oro.....either place can direct u to a place closer.

Good luck
Godspeed
