IS THE MAYO CLINIC IN ROCHESTER, MN THE ONLY FACILITY WITH THE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY AND EXPERTISE TO DX AND TX ARNOLD CHIARI MALFORMATION AND SYRINGOMYLIA. I WORK IN A UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL IN CALIFORNIA AND I HAVE NEVER UP TO NOW NEVER BEEN SO FRUSTRATED AND DISCUSSED WITH THE MEDICAL TREATMENT I HAVE RECEIVED. I HAVE PISSED OFF MANY OF MY DOCTORS BECAUSE I QUESTION MY TREATMENT. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD THING TO PARTICIPATE IN YOUR OWN HEALTH CARE. I JUST FEEL THE DOCTORS AND THE HMO'S COULD CARE LESS WHAT HAPPENS TO ME. I CAN NOW SEE THE PATIENTS POINT OF VIEW FROM BEING ON THE OTHER SIDE. I REALIZE YOU PEOPLE ARE VERY BUSY AND DON'T HAVE ALOT OF TIME TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS? IT SEEMS SOME PEOPLES QUESTIONS TAKE MORE PRESEDENSE OVER MINE. IF YOU CAN'T BE OF ASSISTANCE AT LEAST SAY SO, DON'T OFFER A SERVICE WERE YOU GIVE PEOPLE FALSE HOPE THAT SOMEONE OUT THERE IN THE MEDICAL FIELD ACTUALLY CARES.
