Dr David Haynes is very gifted! He remembers me from the first visit and my fear of the acoustic neuroma because I was losing my earring. He has watched the tumor And after several years decided to stop the process with radiation. I told him about my concern that I was not able to hear and understand my young granddaughters. The Baja five was very effective for many years. But, in the last three years I have gone to the crossover which allows me to hear it much better.I appreciate that he takes into consideration that this process has been stable now for three years and I will not see him again for five years unless there's an unforeseen problem. Vanderbilt, hospital and so fortunate to have him and it is obvious that his staff appreciate and respect him highly. Vanderbilt, is so lucky and so are his patients.
