Dr. Kim Burchiel  of OHSU  out in Oregon was the first in this country to
do the procedure. That doesn't necessarily mean he is any better that
anyone else but he has been doing id longer so he must know what he is
about. Back in 1995 hew did my pallidotomy and it was done well. He also
removed an orange sized brain tumor from my daughter's head. And he got it
all out. My daughter  recovered rather quickly after the surgery.


Dawn:
The number of surgeons who do DBS seems to be growing rapidly. This
probably has to do with the recent FDA approval (and potential payment )
for this procedure.

I have kept a list of doctors, world wide who do this procedure, entering
names whenever I see them.The list is kind of rough, but if you are
interested please let me know. It is a measure of the growth rate that I
do not have any DBS Surgeons names from the Boston area.
