Title: Dr. Hansen at University of Iowa
Post by: Greece Lover on June 16, 2016, 03:10:07 pm

I just had my post op appointment about a month after a middle fossa surgery. 
I can not say enough good things about Dr. Marlan Hansen.  He was very available, answered my emails, and had a great calm way about him.  My surgery was very successful, he saved my hearing.  My second MRI looked great, he said. 
I would highly recommend him if you can find your way to Iowa City.

And Dr Gantz.      Dr Gantz lost his wife this spring to ALS.        I had wondered about why more patients seemed to be going to Hansen lately.        Sad when read her obit in Iowa City paper.             Hansen did my CSF leak which was on a Fri evening and I did like him too.                   I always add my leak was due to them using a new colloidal implant product which was cheaper but 3 people then had leaks.       Made by Medtronic too.     So back to their previous product.
      I have recommended Univ of Iowa to many ANers.        I will be a 15 yr alumni of there in Nov due to my 3 tumors due to NF2.                  They have had many out of state patients come there.                         Cheryl R
