" I've never met Dr. Benbadis personally, but if you go to the TGH website, you can actually watch a taped livebroadcast of a temporal lobe resection. (http://www.or-live.com/tgh/1333/) Viewers were able to send in questions and Dr. Benbadis answered them live during the broadcast. I had few questions of my own medical team a year ago, because Dr. Benbadis had already answered them a year before -- during this surgery. I'd recommend watching it if you're considering the surgery, and If you can see Dr. Benbadis, so much the better! "
