Hello im just looking to see if anyone has paid privately for a consultation with Dr Axon? I paid £500 to see him on the 30th October via zoom. Not only do I have some variation of ES but I also have complex problems with other structures including my hyoid , thyloid and c1. I specifically asked these questions before booking an app which I was told was under his area of interest. I sent in a 21 page report i had done by another specialist. When I received my one page report from Dr Axon , I was extremely disappointed. My current scans are of a ct with contrast to look for lymphoma. He states in the report he looked at a CT venogram. And because he couldnt see certain things clearly , he recommends a high definition ct venogram. Ive tried to clear up with his team that it was a ct with contrast not a ct venogram and ive just had a response that its basically the same thing. Ive also now asked twice for his comment on the other structures and had no response. Genuinely feel like it was rushed and im feeling a bit fobbed off. Looking to see other people’s private experiences before I decided what to do from here. £500 is a lot of money for me and I expected a thorough review , like what was discussed prior to the appointment.

That’s really frustrating when you pay for a private appointment!  
Unfortunately it seems there are different definitions of CT venogram- AI states ‘CT venography uses intravenous contrast and CT imaging to assess venous anatomy’ which is basically what you’ve had, but a CT Venogram can also be used to describe a more invasive, detailed look at the pressures in the brain and neck venous systems. Depending on the delays in doing the scan can depend on how much of the contrast has gone through, so can show the veins better or worse, maybe your scan wasn’t as clear as he needed? Or it could be that the slices of images were too thick to capture enough detail? If he’s asked for a high definition CT venogram, it sounds like yours wasn’t detailed enough for him, but it sounds like it would be the same procedure again you had, just narrower slices?  
He is a skull base surgeon and otolaryngologist, as far as I’m aware he doesn’t treat the hyoid or thyroid (I could be wrong), so the styloids & C1 would be more his speciality. If you were poorly advised about this when you booked the appointment, then I presume you would have to get back onto whichever provider you booked through the appointment through?  
I hope that you can get better answers and see somebody who can help you 🤗
