Terrible expernce:
Dr. Jannetta has his detractors. I am one of them. He has been called perjuror (non indicted) by the Pa Superior Court for lying under oath about the risks of the Jannetta Procedure or MVD) for trigeminal neuralgia. "We have little difficulty in concluding that Dr. Jannetta's testimony at deposition was different than, or inconsistent with, the testimony at trial." Levy v Jannetta, CCP Allegheny County, GD 81-7689; appeal -J. A370017/92 Levy v Jannetta et al, No. 00150 Pittsburgh, 1992. settled, 1995
In his seminal article on his 10 year experience with MVD he neglects me completely (says they followed up with all the patients, they never called me, and facial paralysis is not included in the article as a knonw risk)
These are videos on my med al experience with Dr. Jannetta, the first shorter synopsis, the second more complete.
