Good Morning everyone out there on Facebook !!! I am attempting to have a productive day ! Unfortunately, the past week has been less productive then I would have liked...
Do any of my New Orleans peps recommend a stellar neurosurgeon in the city?

http://www.mayoclinic.org/neurology Derek, if they want to sit in the company of the best they make the journey. I am a patient (long story) in Jacksonville and it just can't get any better than Mayo.

If you are disabled can you get SSI (Supplimental Security Income) from Social Security? If you can get that you should qualify for medicaid. Just a thought. Declan gets that and it makes medicaid easier. Be very careful with La Medicaid. Bayou Health offers about 6 choices but only a few of them are any good. We use United Healthcare? They accept it in Houston. Maybe Mayo would accept one of them?
William K. replied:
I believe they would have to get "accepted" which is quite a task, but they would be sitting in front of the best Docs in my opinion. Another thought would be Cleveland Clinic. Equally the "best".
I'm in the market for a neurologist that has extensive experience with female narcolepsy patients. Please let me know if you recommend anyone.
Kate F. replied:
I don't know about narcolepsy experience but Ralph Gonzalez is awesome and was really good to work with when I worked at MMH
Colleen R. replied:
I like Dr Esparza- very knowledgable, personable and looks at patient as a whole not just from neuro standpoint.
FrankandKatie C. replied:
I agree^. I love Dr. Gonzalez but if you are wanting another opinion Dr. Esparza is great. I don't care for Dr. Loh, his colleague there, but I've worked with Dr. Esparza many times and he has always been wonderful.:) Hope you get some answers. So sorry to hear this:(
Debbie S. replied:
Darte and I use Dr. Loh.
Julie M. replied:
Dr. Esparza is a dear. Very positive for a neurologist.

I personally had a bad experience with Dr.Esparza. He is a nice guy.. that was not my issue.
Ever been DROPPED by your Dr??!!! I can see if you didn't pay or something! I didn't do a 2 wk follow up last yr (I was better - didn't need to fork out $ for him to...

A specific dr Natalie Sherako Johnson - my primary, but the letter I got says that I will no longer be accepted as a patient with Pinnacle Medical Group. Criminy - you'd think I committed a crime or something!!
Lesleigh J. replied:
I do have another one that I found that is really good - Dr Head at Oaks Medical - he takes a lot of time with you & takes time to see what is wrong - only negative - he doesn't go to the hospitals.
