I will trry to do this again. I hope this is better. I also had a few errors, so here goes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is my current list of neurosurgeons performing pallidotomy and / or thalamotomy surgery. I believe all have performed the pallidotomy. Pallidotomy Centers Editor's Notes: The following neurosurgeons have performed the pallidotomy and/or thalamotomy procedure(s). This list is not complete. Although every effort has been made to give correct telephone numbers for inquiry, some numbers may not be current. This is NOT a list of YPSN approved neurosurgeons. There is no such thing. YPSN is providing the list for information only, it is up to the patient, care partner and physician to determine applicability of the procedure and selection of neurosurgeon and facility.
