European surgeons for C1 TP shave

I feel this thread is long overdue for us europeans. This is a dumping ground for any surgeons in europe you’ve heard of that are willing to do this type of C1 surgery.

Apart from Dr Axon at Cambridge, UK, the only other surgeon I know of that does it for certain is Dr Timothy (neurosurgeon) based in Leeds, UK. Do share if you hear of anyone else! There absolutely must be at least a few others somewhere in the wilderness! :melting_face:

Thank you for this post, @jimjammer123, with all the back & forth between our members, it can be hard to keep track of which doctors do what. I’ll check to see if Dr. Timothy has been added to our Doctors List, & if not, will add him since he’s providing a valuable procedure that few doctors offer to do & because his name has come up w/ some frequency recently.

No problem at all and thanks. Yeah exactly, I just thought it would be easier to navigate for any current and future members :slight_smile:

@Isaiah_40_31 @jimjammer123 Thanks so much! Is anyone heve seen Dr Timothy?

I think Mr Timothy is no longer doing the surgery another member said they’d spoken to his secretary, he’s no longer on our list…

How about checking out https://drgilete.com/ as a possibility? We are hearing reputable things about him – and one website search said while he doesn’t focus on Eagle Syndrome, it’s not to say he couldn’t fix it. He definitely works with upper cervical issues and head/neck problems. I’d be really curious to know what he’d do/say about Eagle Syndrome and a C1 TP shave. Dr. Vicenc Gilete has remarkable info on his website… Check it out for curiosity’s sake, if nothing else! His youtube info is helpful as well. Best wishes – finding the needle in the haystack can be frustrating, but with the helpful friends on this forum, hopefully you can find your “needle”!

@GeorgiaKay - Thank you for providing a link to Dr. Gilete! His knowledge & experience sound like they will be very helpful for our French members as the doctor we have on our Doctors List for France is reportedly no longer doing ES surgeries. I hope @Veroguilnec is able to get a consult with him & the help she needs.

I am from the US, but we did go to Europe three times for spine surgery, as in artificial disc replacements. The two times we were in France for spine surgery, we saw Prof. Patrick Tropiano, in Marseille, France. Top notch spine surgeon. He’s the one who stabilized my spine, after a previous spine surgery I got in Germany totally failed within the first two months. However, Pr. Tropiano is not an Eagle Syndrome surgeon. That’s where possibly Dr. Gilete could come into the picture…
