Old Discussions from US Doctors Familiar With ES

Hi,

I am in Seattle, Washington.

When I mentioned Eagle Syndrome both my pain specialist (At the University of Washington), and my ENT (at Swedish) initially suggested Dr. Albert L. Merati, UW Medicine. I believe he might do intra-oral (transoral?) as the ENT indicated he removes tonsils, but I don’t know. His reviews are good. Edit: I did read that external surgery is preferred, so I chose the recommended physician here

However, based upon the recommendations here, I requested a referral to Neal Futran, MD, DMD ( I had also written to an ENT surgeon at the UW I saw a few years ago (Allen Hillel, he works with speech/opera singers). He wrote me last night and also recommended Dr. Futran.)

I am trying to get an appointment. I will keep you posted.
