international patients for appointment with Dr. Dewan Karuna

General

Hello,

Does anyone have a contact to have a telemedicine appointment with Dr. Dewan Karuna for suspected hyoid bone syndrome? I’ve been trying to contact her for over a month through Amy, her secretary, and she’s no longer responding to my emails. What can I do? It’s quite urgent… In France, no one specializes in this hyoid bone syndrome.

We have heard from people in the US that getting an appointment w/ Dr. Dewan can take some effort because communication with her office isn’t good. Did Amy give you any indication of how long it might be before you could be scheduled for a consult with Dr. Dewan? For our US members, she requires an initial consult to be in person, but I don’t know if she has that policy for international patients.

Another doctor you can try is Dr. Chhetri at UCLA Medical Center in California. He also does hyoid bone surgeries. I’m sorry he’s much farther away but the UCLA Medical System might have more efficient communication.
