My daughter diagnosed with TOS-pagett schluetter variety, just had
surgery to remove her first rib. The Doctor is Dr. Frank Scholl in
Hollywood Florida, although he is a pediatric surgeoun as my daughter
is young. He and his partner, Dr. Perryman may be able to point you
in the right direction. They're phone number is 954-985-6939. Good
Luck!

> Hey! Well I struggled with pain for five years.. and I wish I
would have found this place sooner... The doctor is amazing.. and he
will do anything to help you.. He works on most of the professional
athletes that have TOS.. and yet when you are his patient you feel
like you are his only patient in the world.. He is pretty much
amazing!! His name is Dr. Annest.. he works out of the Vascular
Institute of the Rockies. I dont know where you live.. but I made
three trips out there to see him and last June I had surgery and I
have been pain free for about 3 months now! Changed my life. I did
not live close to Colorado, but it was well worth the trip and money
spent. HOPE THIS HELPS!!
