Dr. Rigamonti is a neurosurgeon from s Hopkins Hospital. He did

surgery on me and I am sure many other LP's on this list He probably

one of the best in the country.

Good Luck

Hi Steph,

Here are 2 people you might want to contact:

1.

Dee , Senior Program Clinical Coordinator of the Greenberg Center for

Skeletal Dysplasias at s Hopkins in Baltimore, could probably recommend a

neurologist in the local area. She can be reached at (410) 614-0977. She is

also on the LPA Medical Advisory Board.

Here a few websites for her:

2.

Dr. e Rigamonti with s Hopkins in Baltimore is a neurosurgeon who has

operated on many people with achondroplasia. You can reach his office at (410)

955.2259. He performed a lumbar laminectomy on me in '95 with great results.

There are others on this list who have also had surgery performed by him.

Here are a few websites with info about him:

I hope this helps.
