Patient Reviews
Nov 25, 2024
My husband has suffered from this disease for five excruciating years. Dr. Zimmerman changed his life through brain surgery. We will be forever grateful to him. This is a terrible disease that can be cured through surgery. Please reach out to the Mayo Clinic and Dr. Zimmerman. You do not have to live with pain and horrible medication for the rest of your life. There is hope.
