I go to the MINCEP epilepsy

I go to the MINCEP epilepsy care center in Minneapolis and see Dr. Tran, and Dr. Beattie, and there is a third one but I can't remember his name. My main Dr. that I see is Dr.Jeanne Beattie, but they all discuss my case, and then they all determine what is best. I have been happy there and I am going to have surgery on the 24th of January at Abbott Northwestern. What I like is that they strictly deal with epilepsy and seizures. It is located on Wayzata Blvd.

Thank you for your comment. I had been at MINCEP, but I had to change due to insurance changes. I am not happy with the dr I changed to and I need to find a new one. I was very happy with MINCEP, but I can not afford it now.
I hope your surgery goes well later this month.

I go to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, and see Dr. Jeffrey Britton. He has been a very helpful epileptologist, looking at obtaining and maintaining a decent quality of life. You may want to give them a try if you aren't too far from Rochester. Best of luck! Heather
