Not sure about LA, but It is performed at UCSF. I had it performed in Pittsburgh by a surgeon trained at UCSF.
What is it?
Yes, please explain more.
Clear P0int Surgery is done in only about 5 hospitals. It is much less invasive than DBS, you are totally "under" & it takes 1/2 the time of DBS. It has been done in Europe for quite a while. Medtronics is slowly marketing this. UCSF is the leading hospital for this. I have a number of articles on it if you need more info.
