dunno bout anyone else, but I read and re-read this thread, scratching my head, my tummy, ate a turkey sandwich... reading again... and thinking... am I dense... where did OP say anything about suing anyone?
Maybe I should start another thread, but if anyone has any recommendations for a neurologist-- outside of duke-- ? Elderly father can't get in before end of march, and is exhibiting signs of dementia... stabbing our hearts with a knife.

Someone’s just trying to put their wife out of business. Carry on.
you're not a lawyer and have NO IDEA what kind of case they have if they DO decide to sue (JKgourmet's husband, every time they go to said friend's house: "This here chair is unsteady, can I sit somewhere else?" Homeowner: "we know it's rickety but you sat there once when the 'Canes won so that's your chair now") Some....years....later.....(to paraphrase SpongeBob) down goes JK's husband who is an EGGSHELL (ask your wife about that). And all their friends say "he's been telling you for years that chair you make him sit in is rickety!"
Yawn. I have heard this story probably a million times. Except for the plaintiff being refered to as an EGGSHELL. Why did the "eggshell" keep sitting in the rickety chair knowing that it was dangerous ? Knowing that he had back issues ?
QUOTE=twingles;62668280]In my claims career I've explained more law to attorneys than I would care to think about. Just sayin'.[/quote]
Well, I am quite sure that you have ..... and they laugh every time. Just sayin'.
My point is that the OP needs to get a referral from a legitimate source rather than relying on random internet strangers. I don't doubt her concern in trying to help her husband.
And, just to clear the air, we've had quite a few 2nd opinions that differed from the 1st. I've had the uncomfortable experience of having a physician admit to my face he made a mistake.
Ultimately, physicians are human. They make mistakes. So does God.
So - you are still looking for another second opinion ? Even though you have had quite a few other second opinions ? That's why I am so confused. I would recommend your calling the NC Medical Society, explain your concerns and they will try to give you some recommendations.

You are brow beating the OP way too hard.
She did not say these second opinions are related to this instance.
Jeeze. Slow day in the amateur legal beagle realm?
The only thing we all need to be worried about right now is NCObserver billing us all $250/hour every time he posts and we learn nothing new. Kind of like calling a lawyer.
Reading comprehension is a strong suit of most attorneys, though. But it doesn't rub off.
(and yeah when I explain Zone of Danger to an attorney, I bet he takes his cheap suit that drags on the ground back to office with the ripped couches in the waiting room and puffs up chest and regales his paralegal [mom]with his newfound knowledge and pretends he schooled me. BTDT seen it lived it).

To Mike's point, I probably picked on the OP too much, primarily because I was very confused as to what they were trying to say. My apologizes and I hope that they find what they are looking for. I gave them a good recommendation, and I hope that they pursue it.
Don’t know why Twingles jumped into the fray. As a claims adjuster.
Regarding Twingles, I would suggest that she sticks to her day job as an insurance adjuster and quit acting like she graduated from a top 30 law school, passed the bar and is "schooling lawyers". (FWIW, most reputable law firms charge more in the $ 400.00 per hour range).
After 30 years of listening to my wife's bitching about all of the crazy stuff, I have learned a thing or two about the system.
