I am trying to schedule in NYC NYU/Langone and just found out from Dr. Kondziolka that the entire Gamma Knife, along with many other things, was wiped out during Hurricane Sandy. He is perfoming the procedure at Hackenack UMC/John Theurer or Nassau Hospital. Choice is patient's. Newest equipment at Hackensack, plus its closer to city.
Would like to hear from anyone that has been to Dr. K post Sandy and what experience was like; coordination between facilities and other docs on team not from NYU/Langone.
Newly diagnosed and treatment decision made thanks to the many people on willing to talk list and this forum.
