Kelly, My experience with MDA is that they are respectful of other trained doctors, and when you are satisfied where you are and are near home, they think you should be there. Their head and neck department is excellent, but they probably know some of the doctors at Michigan to be excellent. I'm glad you got a second opinion there. What was the name of the ENT you saw? I don't think 75% sounds too bad, just stay strong! Anne
