There seems to be many new posters lately. As you begin your research take advantage of the fact that House Ear Institute (highly regarded facillity) will read your MRI's for free.
The doctor will spend as much time as you want answering your questions with a follow up phone call.
From the House Ear Clinic Website:
House Ear Clinic CONSULTATIONS
If you, a family member, or someone you know has been diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma, you may consult with a doctor from the House Ear Clinic team. We will be happy to review the MRI scans and audiogram and speak with you by telephone (we must have a copy of the actual MRI film, reports are not sufficient by themselves).
Send the MRI scans by express delivery (be sure that you are able to track the package) to:
House Ear Clinic
Attn: Acoustic Neuroma Website Consultations
2100 W. Third Street, 1st Floor
Los Angeles, CA 90057
You can expect to hear from a House Ear Clinic physician within 24 hours of our receipt of your information. You may also call or fax a House Ear Clinic physician at:
Telephone: (213) 483-9930
FAX: (213) 484-5900
All the best to you,
Kate
