Lahey Clinic in Burlington, MA
« on: March 20, 2008, 05:48:10 am »
I spent some time on the phone yesterday with the wife of a recent AN diagnosee (the friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend kind of situation).  Her husband has an AN that's a little over 2cm; symptoms are hearing loss and some minor balance issues.  He's been scheduled for surgery in mid-April with Drs. David and Catalano at Lahey Clinic in Burlington, MA.  I didn't know what to tell her about those doctors, since I don't know anyone who's seen them.  They have all the right words on the Lahey web site, but I don't know their experience level.

Anyone have any experience with these particular doctors? 

Thanks!

Hi Katie  :-*

I'm hoping to get them to join for brunch.  He's currently scheduled for surgery on April 17, so I don't know about the one in May.
