Which Dr. does DBS?


Premise:  You must have DBS surgery

Option 1 -  Dr. X is not the most competent doctor and has only done two other 
similar procedures in his career, but he has an expert staff of highly skilled 
and respected doctors on his team.  He is certain that they can resolve any 
surgical complications through a combined effort of problem solving.  He 
graduated from medical school with a C+ average.

Option 2 - Dr. Y is a world renowned neurosurgeon who specializes in PD and has 
done over 100 DBS procedures.  He also has an elite team with a proven, time 
tested record.  He is kind of a geek, and not real sociable.  He has all kinds 
of academic awards, scores of published books and articles, and is  constantly 
updating his education.  He graduated from medical school with honors and an A- 
average.

Decision - Who does your surgery?

VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE!
