Can't think of all the names off the top of my head, but when my son was in his horrific accident in Feb. of 2007, the neurosurgeons at Washington Hospital Center were AWESOME.
A lot of patients families had a problem with their "know it all attitudes". It made me feel pretty confident in them. I would try to get a referral to one of them. IF you go to WHC web site, then click on neuro-surgery, they have an entire list. I would try to get in with the director or the big kahuna in charge.
Just my 2 cents.
Good Luck.
