In 2003 when I saw Dr. V he was practicing alone. He spent more than 45 minutes with me and wrote a 4 page office notes of all the discussions we had. I ran out of questions or he would have talked with me longer. Can you imagine, some guy from the west coast and he does this? He is very pleasant. He's awesome. My sister tells me the staff at Jewish thinks he is the top surgeon there. I get the impression he takes great pride in his work and the well being of his patients.
Just tell the staff and the good doctors that your friends on the forum are demanding that you see Dr. V.
I also had a L5S1 discectomy in 1981 from Dr. John Guarnashelli (sp?) another neurosurgeon. He's also supposed to be another excellent surgeon, also recommended by my sister. He's probably still practicing.
