Hello Cece,
We both have had two procedures because the first one did not investigate the full extend of our CCSVI syndrome (they were early procedures). I do not doubt the there are lots of Interventionalists, like Dr Syed, who are skilled in their profession. However, if they do not use the correct tools (Catheter venography and IVUS) and leading practice, they may miss some problems. Many pwMS do not have the luxury of two or three procedurers. My aim is to point out the 'gold standard' clinics, who are more likely to get it 'right first time'.
Best wishes,
