We have seen Dr. Mih and were not overly impressed. He is not a regular Riley Dr. He holds clinic there a couple times a month but it is not his home office.

Dr. Yang at University of Michigan is very talented, cares deeply for each and every patient and always puts the patient and the family first. The brachial plexus group at University of Michigan have many years of experience and knowledge. Our family has been extremely satisfied with the care. My granddaughter had a very large nerve graft at age 9 months and has done extremely well, she is now 3 years and 4 months old.

We live in Nebraska and take our doctor to see the the trio of Dr's at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. Hope you find the one that feels right to you!

I have heard great things form the doctors at Mayo in Rochester MN. We had Dr. Van Heest do Jocelyn's surgery. She works for the University of Minesota and her surgery was done at Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare in St. Paul. I hope you fid a great surgeon!
