    CF Doctor Near Monterey/Salinas/Gilroy, CA

    Good ENT in Dallas (DFW) Area?

    Oh also, I don't know that I can say with certainty that there is no one good at UT Southwestern. It may just be that I haven't yet seen the good one(s) that are there. The two I have seen so far have said surgery is overrated and just use NeilMed and some variant of Flonase. Well that hasn't...
