For me, three neurologists, all had opinions based on what I told them of my symptoms, none bothered to get xrays or MRIs. One said PT would fix, one gave me scripts for different muscle relaxers even when I told her I didn't liek them, one said my headaches and weakness down my arms was caused by excessive alcohol consumption. My orthopedic docs, however, started with x rays then MRIs. First one did fusions in 1998(technology at the time) then moved out of the state. Dr Yue replaced him and sent me to Dr B. in 2005 for an ADR. I've been very happy with Dr Yue & his staff.
