Title: Florida neurologist wanted
Post by LisaH on Oct 19^th, 2005 at 12:25am

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good neurologist in the New Port Richey area of Florida (or anywhere in the vicinity within reason). NOT for Moyamoya but for a family member of mine there that is having a difficult time getting any answers or quality care so far and *may* have Neuropathy or Parkinsons.

By the way, I will be in the Naples area end of Oct-Nov 7 and if there is anyone in that area with MM, I would love to meet up with you!

Thanks,
Lisa

Hi Lisa

Dr Bernard A Macik
1840 Mease Dr Suite 401
Safety Harbor,FL 34695
727-726-8287

He is who I used for stroke follow-up.He is a good Dr.at the time,But we did not know about MM in 2001.

Also call Tampa General Hospital Referral line.

About Naples I know Little.I think they have a Mayo or Cleveland clinic there.

If all else fails their is Uof F Shands Hospital in Gainsville,Fl.
By the way Dr Macik is about 15 miles south of New Port Richey.

Hope It Helps

Thank you SOOOO much Kevin. [smiley=bow.gif] That info is of immense help! I didn't realize either (or just forgot) that there is a Mayo in Florida too. Kind of far for this family member to go but I guess if you are desperate enough.... Think we'll try Dr. Macik first, although I just heard that the Gainesville hospital has a great neurology department too.

Too bad you won't be in FL in November- would love to meet you! Although, with hurricane Wilma, I'm not sure there will be a Naples for me to visit! [smiley=eek.gif]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
