There have been a few discussions on our forum where Mr. Obholzer has been mentioned, but I don’t think we have any members who’ve had him do their ES surgeries. He seems somewhat picky about which patients he’ll do ES surgery for & has a specific diagnostic regimen he uses, but I can’t remember exactly what it is. He does seem to have a good reputation from what others have said. > [@Waiting for UK referral](https://forum.livingwitheagle.org/t/waiting-for-uk-referral/629/76): > > Sorry was not on here for some time he is ENT Surgeon Dr. Rupert Obholzer Guys Hospital London UK he is the Head of the Unit a very nice Man > [@HI/ how to rule other conditions besides es/ves before surgery](https://forum.livingwitheagle.org/t/hi-how-to-rule-other-conditions-besides-es-ves-before-surgery/16334/6): > > I’m in the UK. I have chiari malformation type 1, disc bulges in the neck and elongated styloids. So gone around in circles since 2016. Last year I saw Dr Rupert Obholzer and he looked at all my CT scans since 2012 and ruled out chiari. I initially thought I might have CCI as I have balance issues. I did some vestibular rehab and it had helped a bit. My biggest issue is continuous jaw and temple pain and pressure. Styloids are 4.2cm on left and 4.6cm on right.

Hi Isaac, think I recall his diagnostic test was using steroid injections. If patient does not respond to this then he said no to operating. I believe he is at Cleveland Clinic as Mr Hughes told me he was. D ---
