Hello! It's been awhile since I've been on the boards...life kinda happened and we've just been waiting things out. So we are back to searching for a great doctor and hospital now. So I was wondering is there any good revision doctors in Chicago? I hear that Rush Medical is suppose to be a wonderful hospital. Just alittle background info...My daughter is 18, she's had 3 open heart surgeries and 3 spine surgeries...the doctors really screwed up her back. She now has Kyphosis and Lordosis. We went to see Dr. Samdani who sent us home saying he would not do surgery on his own daughter if she was in the condition that mine was in mainly because Shriners doesn't have a dedicated cardiac team. He's a good doctor, I believe that but his fear was for the massive blood loss that might occur over 3 surgeries....the amount of surgeries it would take to break her fusion and redo her back. So can anyone tell me anything about Chicago and the doctors there? There are so many doctors and hospitals it is really mind boggling to know who would be the betst to go too.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
