"Dr. Hadlock helped me with my Bells Palsy and is the most competent and caring doctor one could hope for to deal with facial paralysis. My local doctor suggested sewing my eye shut as a response to my eye not closing but when I saw her, she put a tiny platinum weight into my eyelid to help it close. Talk about night and day treatment going from someone who does not know best practices to one who sets the standard for best practices! She has done a Cross Facial Nerve Graft and Grascillus Muscle Transfer as a response to my paralysis and helped me feel better as a person who could then communicate more effectively with the world around me. Every time I have been in her office she is teaching others how to serve patients and I used the word serve because when I go there I feel as if I am a very important person who is getting a queen's treatment. Her staff is amazing and helpful - Bailey helps with logistics when I'm flying there and Mara, the PT is outstanding as well! Thanks Dr. H!"
