she is not the surgeon so for surgery no i would not have her do surgery - dr tobias is a surgeon and dr centers is an internal medicine specialist. you would only be going to dr centers as a consult to review all the tests you have already done to discuss his case. Call her back ask if they do the scintigraphy there and ask her the cost and tell her you have all these tests done already and do not want them duplicated you just want her to review the tests and get back with you and maybe you can even do over the phone as a phone consult as i think your vet can overnight the ultrasound, and you or vet can send all records for her to review this may save you the trip - I do agree dr tobias is the best for surgery and cheapest - are you near new jersey? I know someone else on a yorkie group that is very pleased with her surgeon that did the shunt surgery and could get you her info as she could not make the trip either - The group has a list of hotels, etc over there and it is very safe i believe as my friend flew from california stayed a week and had everything done there as it was very expensive to have it done here and the surgeon had not done alot of them here so she was more comfortable going to ut and flight hotel, surgery all was cheaper than surgery here
