I do not know anything about this doctor, if he is good, bad or ugly.

I have just found it in the web and remembering that someone here asked about this, I have just posted it.

It is in spanish but google translation is readable.

Very kind of you, Fernando.

Dr. Mehta in Albany, NY, USA, is a vascular surgeon, and his practice has a TOS specialty. Dr. Mehta just liberated me this August for CCSVI, and I am sleeping and dreaming again. :)

It is good to have a list of doctors who specialize in TOS/CTOS (Thoracic Outlet Syndrome) because a small percentage of MS/CCSVI patients might also have TOS which, like May-Thurner (M-T), shares some symptoms with "MS."

TOS symptoms are caused by nerve compression from scalene muscles and/or 1st rib bone. Since TOS can be correctable, it's uber-important to choose the proper type of doctor, a vascular surgeon, who is able to diagnose and treat these problems, just like VSs diagnose and treat M-T.

Thank you!
