Does anyone have information about the (OHSU) Oregon Health Sciences Univeristy  AN team ..... Dr.  Johnny Delashaw and Dr. Sean McMenomey ...... I am scheduled for a middle fossa surgery on Monday (May 14).  I have heard only good things about Dr. Delashaw (the neurosurgeon)  & that he does a huge majority of the AN surgeries in Oregon. ..... but I haven't heard anything from anyone who has had AN surgery from him.... only other types of surgery.   I  haven't met Dr. McMenomey yet..... I will this week.  Sorry I am giving such short notice  but I just found your site a short time ago and just joined. I would appreciate hearing from people.  Thank you.                marg

Hi marg and welcome.  I'm glad you found us here.

Whenever I meet with a dr for the first time for potential treatments, I always ask them directly for their customer references.  In the case of my AN CK treatment team, I asked my radio-oncologist for a list of patient references that he has treated.  2 were happy to speak to me and now, my radio-oncologist uses me as a reference (I have also received phone calls from his potential patients). 

So, did you ask them directly for patient references?  Your post here is perfect if anyone knows them, but they may also have patients that do not post here....

Just a thought....

Again, welcome,
Phyl

I had surgery in Nov 1998 by Delashaw and McMenomey.  Subsequently the tumor grew back and I had more surgery in Dec 2003.  I am happy to discuss my experience.  Candee

Hi Candee,
   Did you have the same 2 doctors do your 2nd surgery?  How long was it after surgery that the tumor grew back?  I hope you had a positive experience with these 2 Dr's.    Did you have the same type  surgery both times?            Marg

Hi, I just had AN surgery by this team in July 2006. They are excellent and OHSU is one of the best hospitals. Make sure and ask questions. Because I was unaware of after surgery dinginess I had.(Dingy!!)  ;)   My brain swolled and water so I ended up having to go back to have a second surgery no fault of theres. They are the top surgeons up there for this surgery. Good Luck :)
