My name is Pamela Lomas I was diagnosed at the age of 56  with Moyamoya in January 2006 by Dr. Marco Silva in Beaumont Texas. Despit all of my pleading he would not preform the surgery, he sent me to Dr Dennis Vollmer in Houston.
I cannot tell you the relief I felt after talking with him, I didn't want to have the surgery. He explained what a STA-MCA bypass was and how he would do it and exactly what my results would be.
I had surgery a week and a half later on my left side at Memorial Hermann hospital in Houston. My expected stay was a week but I went home  after 3 days.
Dr Vollmer was an excellent doctor and the care I received at Memorial Hermann was excellent. When it comes time to do my right side  I know I will be in the best hands :)

This is nice to hear that there is a doctor in TEXAS that will do STA-MCA Bypass like Dr. Steinberg.   :)  I live in Austin, TX, so Houston is much closer than visiting San Francisco!

Thanks for introducing the new doctor.

There are a number of surgeons in Houston. Dr. James E. Rose did my wife
Brenda's bypass surgery, he is a wonderful surgeon as well as a wonderful
person. Birdleggs we only live 40 miles from you. I emailed you our phone
numbers if you would like to speak to Brenda or myself.
