Good Dr.'s in Indianapolis...

offthahook · 02-15-2002, 11:09 PM

From my experience. Most need referrals, though...
Dr. David Brokaw-- Ortho. traumatologist. He excised HO bone in my hips X3, bilateral tendon releases, shaving of right IT bone. Quote from Dr. David Chen at RIC "I cannot tell you ever had HO." I had hella bone too (over 50 pieces per surgery!!)

Dr. Michael Turner-- Neurosurgeon. Did my Baclofen pump, VERY concerned when catheter was torn, put in new catheter immediately.

Dr. Peter Kunz-- Plastics. Good on decubes, stays informed like a mofo.

Dr. Terry Trammell-- Spinal Cord Specialist. Only saw him once, but dude is just str8 up smart about rods, fusion, etc. Y'all know him already

Dr. Michael Berkowitz--Phsyiatry. Conservative, but very knowledgable. Was in Indy, now at RIC.

Dr. Gerardo Gomez--Trauma. If you're in Indy and get shot, he's the man. Saved me fa sho!! Hope you never need a trauma doc again, but he's the guru of gunshots, partna...

All experts, all world.

Hmmm... Berkowitz went to Chicago. I've been to Dr. Gregori, but he is very conservative and "by the book." I've heard good things about Dr. Lipson; she's in the same group as Dr. Turner-- Indpls. Neurosurgical Group. She also does a lot of the SCI work at RHI, so she does have experience.
