    The doctor and nurse were very knowledgeable and clearly explained what was going on with my situation. They explained how it could be handled and any risks involved. They told me I had time to think about the procedure while I proceeded with another test.

    Dr. Gailloud has been treating me for an av dural fistula for a few years. The main side effect of that fistula changed remarkably recently. Dr. Gailloud, his assistant, [staff], and their office, were very responsive and helped arrange new MRIs/MRAs and a follow-up appt with Dr. Gailloud to review the results. I was very pleased with my appt with Dr. Gailloud and his analysis of the changes in my fistula. I have great confidence in his expertise and am very pleased he is monitoring my condition.
