everyman -

being in California you have great options.  HEI (House Ear Institute) which was already mentioned, as well as Dr. Chang who is @ Stanford. 

Check out HEI as well as Dr. Chang, since the docs @ HEI typically do surgery and Dr. Chang does both radiation and surgery.

Good luck,

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

It is what it is
