SHE FOUND 'THE BEST DOCTORS' WHEN SHE NEEDED THEM MOST.
If you or your family contract a critical illness it can not only be life threatening it can be financially crippling - but there could be a solution to the problem. If you are interested read on...
*Mary was 33 and had completely lost her sight over a period of months. She was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor requiring emergency open head surgery - a procedure both dangerous and disfiguring. The location of the tumor required the optic nerve to be cut and permanent blindness would result. She turned to Best Doctors in the hope they could find an alternative treatment.
Thanks to Best Doctors she discovered she did not have a life threatening tumor but rather she had sarcoidosis, a treatable inflammatory condition. For final determination and expert advice on treatment the assessment was forwarded to a Rheumatologist from the Best Doctors Global Network who confirmed sarcoidosis.The Rheumatologist immediately phoned Mary's surgeon and recommended cancelling the operation. Mary's surgeon was skeptical but at the insistence of the specialist agreed to delay the operation for 48 hours.
During this time anti-inflammatory drugs were administered and the change was dramatic. Mary's eye sight began returning almost immediately. Today Mary is healthy and active with full eyesight and thankful for the services of Best Doctors.
