Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Hi all, can anyone refer me to a pediatric nsg in the Louisville Kentucky area? I'm looking for someone to go to for a second opinion, and ideally, someone who is conservative as far as recommending TCS release surgery, ie who is not always going to recommend surgery necessarily. 15 yo ds diagnosed with TCS and we saw Dr. Gump of Gump and Moriarty on Wednesday afternoon. Were favorably impressed in general. He recommends TCS release surgery. He says Scheuermann's kyphosis likely caused by tension on cord, while allowing there are no guarantees of that. Currently this is the only symptom (if it is that) our son has. We are looking to get a second opinion before we dive into anything as invasive as this. We will travel in the area, so someone in Lexington, southern Indiana, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, etc, is within reach. Thanks for any replies. -- Jamison Griebenow, skookie@...
