4th time's a charm?
Today, Bertrand officially switched neurologists for the fourth time at the University of Utah. Ironically, this doctor is the one we were originally recommended back in 2008/2009, but he wasn't taking on new patients (despite strenuously pleading Bertrand's case to his administrative assistant). Actually, I think he still doesn't take new patients, except in special cases. I guess I Bertrand finally qualifies as difficult special. ;)

So who's the new neurologist?
ReplyDeleteDr. Francis Filloux :)
ReplyDeleteAH! We had Dr. Filloux! Do you like him? He's the head of pediatric neurology at Primary Children's -- or was when we had him. When we moved from Utah to Washington, I kept him and flew back for appointments because I wasn't willing to give him up just yet. How do you like him?
ReplyDeleteWe like him a lot, Jenny! He's been Bertrand's attending before, so we'd already met him. B's prior neurologist specializes in neuromuscular issues. So, his genetic/metabolic issues would often leave her stumped. Dr. Filloux seems a lot more comfortable dealing with the unknown, which I suspect will make him a better fit for Bertrand. He also takes my habit of handing over reams of research papers pretty well, so we're happy so far. :)
