@johnbishop Your post struck a chord with me. I worked along with print press operators and hands-on photo print processing for years. Although I had minor exposure, it was increasingly concerning to learn how harmful those chemical were as reports became more widely disseminated about their effects.

I’m curious if you were at IBM in NY. We were there back in the day, I almost took a job at Union Carbide (chemicals, chemicals, chemicals) but my husband and I stayed in the print and graphic arts industry. But I digress.

I’ve come to think that some of the best patient care is at facilities that are located in the hub of disease, where there is also money to fund research and good health insurance coverage. For instance, top cancer centers are nearby high cancer rates, in areas with good funding.

For neurology, I’d be looking for answers at Columbia Presbyterian NY Hospital, Henry Ford, and Mayo Clinic Rochester. I’m sure there are other great neurology centers, too. I find it difficult to specifically look for where the best research is being done on peripheral neuropathy. Central neuropathy seems to have the corner on the market.
