Recommending a doctor that is good it's good. But there's a lot of bad mixed in with the good who should not be doing these operations. Unfortunately, I had the honors of having a doctor who did it so or do many of these at all. An AVM on the brain stem with blood bleeding for six months straight.
He is one of the doctors that the infamous AVM scale is named after. If mine had bled in AZ when I lived there (well it did in 2005 but I never went to the doctor, the wait at the St. Joseph's ER was like 8 hours and I couldn't handle sitting there that long), I'm sure he would've taken care of me too! Mine was in my cerebellum, very close to the brain stem, but didn't know anything about AVM's at the time.
