Brian, my neurosurgeon is Dr. Karl Schultz Jr. in Gainesville. His practice has 2 other male doctors and his office is located in the Guilford building off Jesse Jewell. Very competent doctors I must say (& that is rare thing for me to say about a doctor these days).

Cindy,
Does Dr. Karl Schultz Jr do angio procedures? All i see is craniotomy and that is not an option where my avm is. My treatment is the if it bleeds game. It is in 4 different locations on the left side of my brain. However it is good to know that there are some good nero surgeons 10 miles from my house. -
