Dr. Frank Cantrell! He's an old guy and not sure if still practicing but before Jerry had his neck surgery he saw Dr. Cantrell and he actually sits down with a legal pad and pen and asks questions...lots of them. He basically told Jerry what his problem was and then he was able to refer him to 1 of 2 docs that he thought were the best and Dr. Adam Brant or Brandt was!! Both in Fresno and worth every penny!! Also our son suggested Dr. Najafi. Dr. Cantrell doesn't do surgeries but the 2 I mentioned do. It took us 3 months to get in to see Dr. Brandt. If you need any more info...let me know as our son, Jeremy, is a physical therapist at Comm Regional Med Ctr in Fresno and he sees a lot of doctors work.

Thank you, Regina. This website was so helpful and quite alarming as I realize that I am having frequent TIAs (mini-stroke) which is getting ready for the big one. I have asked my doctor to fax my referral to see Dr. Michael Lawton, vascular neurologist. I had another episode yesterday afternoon as I thought it was heat exhaustion. Thx a million.
