I also live in Alaska-as soon as I found out I had a meningioma I went to Mayo Clinic in Rochester. I had gamma knife almost one year. I had a great experience. Much better than the care here in Anchorage....much better.

Thanks for your comment. I went to Mayo Rochester and am on watch and wait. For surgery I would likely go there or Seattle. Did you look into Seattle doctors at all? Fairbanks doesn't have a neurosurgeon.Thanks!
