Hi Greg, Sounds like you have a lot going on. I am sorry, as you are obviously in a great deal of pain.

For myself, I know, chronic pain can create overwhelming emotions and frustration. Some days more than others.

While I do not know any medical facilities in your area, I know many, very good doctors in the Washington DC area take medicare. Both my back surgeon and my eye surgeon take Medicare.

I just did a google search to research my eye surgeon before setting up an appointment for my cataract surgery. ( I am excited to not have to contend with glasses and contacts) I was happy and comforted to find my eye surgeon has many success stories that people have shared online.

Also, there are many sites that rate doctors and provide information to help you search out the right doctor for you. Maybe someone on this site can refer you to reputable sites for this type of information.

Taking the steps to take care of yourself is empowering. I wish you good luck and peace in this process.
