Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 As far as referrals go I think it depends on your insurance. Another option is to see a Cranio-facial team to get a 2nd opinion. JEN Mommy to 4...and 1 more!!!!

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hi, I'm now considering getting another opinion on my daughter's plagio, and thanks to the list of Doctors in the database, it looks like there's a band-knowledgable neurosurgeon in our area. This is probably a stupid question, but...do neurosurgeons only see babies that need surgery? Will they see my daughter for her plagio even if I don't think she needs surgery? Do you typically need a referral from your pediatrician to go to a neurosurgeon, or could I just go ahead and make an appointment on my own? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 I did not need a referral to take my son to a neurosurgeon. He saw my son for plagio only (no surgergy) and wants him to come in for check-ups during the helmet process. questions about neurosurgeons Hi, I'm now considering getting another opinion on my daughter's plagio, and thanks to the list of Doctors in the database, it looks like there's a band-knowledgable neurosurgeon in our area.
