Has anyone had AN surgery at the Ohio State medical center?
« on: February 18, 2014, 08:03:09 pm »
I was recently diagnosed with a 1.5 cm AN. My ENT referred me to Ohio State ear institute . . .was wondering if anyone has had surgery here. If so who was doctor and how did it go?

I'm from Wisconsin, but have heard a lot about the Mayfield Ear Inst. in Cleveland I believe. 

There are some You Tube videos about them too.

1 cm AN deep in the boney canal.  Treated with 26 treatments of radiation in December, 2013.  Please pray with me that this worked.
