Title: UCSD (Friedman) vs Mt Sinai (Bederson) vs NYU (Golfinos)
Post by: jessli88 on June 13, 2025, 05:52:28 pm
Hi,

I'm 37 years old, 4 cm AN, just gave birth 4/29/25 - lots going on! I'm deciding between UCSD (Dr Friedman) vs Mt Sinai (Dr Bederson) vs NYU (Dr Golfinos) - thoughts / recommendations? Trying to assess who would give me the greatest chance at the smoother / fastest recovery, and smallest risk of facial muscle weakness. The latter two recommend the retrosigmoid approach while Friedman recommends trans lab. Can't decide, they all seem great. Wish I could have them all operate on me :D

Thanks,
Jess
