NA - USA

Frances,

First word should be, Thanks not thank. I missed a key. It is difficult to score 100 percent everyday.

California

Hello

I had NA performed a week ago Friday by Dr. Eaton...I was the third patient from CA that day. I asked the same thing, why not a location here.

So...I flew into West Palm Beach on Thursday, had my procedure on Friday and came back Saturday. My NA was a complete success and I am thrilled with the results. Dr. Eaton and his staff are wonderful and it was well worth the trip.

Good luck to you all!!

Excessive Treatment Fee

I know this is going to ruffle a few feathers but the fee Dr Eaton charges for NA seems excessive almost greedy. Assuming the treatment takes 30 minutes (many people say 20) and he can treat 10 people in a day (2 people per hour for a 5 hour day not too bad) then he is making $8000 per day. He performs NA 3 days a week which comes out to 1.2 MILLION dollars in a 50 week year. Thats a hell of a lot of money for working 3 days a week. The other 2 days he does consultations and traditional surgery would easily pay his office expenses and staff. The French doctors charge about $150 for a treatment. No wonder Dr Eaton is putting on another doctor.

Now as someone who has early stages of DC I appreciate someone who was forward thinking and bold enough to learn this treatment. And when my time comes I'll go see him and fork over my $800 or so. And I'm sure the good doctor is very nice as reported by so many here. He obviously does good work. But the amount he charges I feel is excessive and is taking advantage of those who's choices are limited.

response to excessive fees

I had Na surgery in May by Dr. Eaton, and I was extremely pleased. I would have gladly paid double the fee because you are paid for what you know.....NOT for what you DO. Dr. Eaton KNOWS the anatomy and the physiology of the hand and he has the good judgment to know where and when to do the procedure. I would not begrudge the man one penny of his fees because he was a pioneer here in the US and he has saved hundreds of us from the brutal fasciectomy surgery. I have an appointment in Jan 2005 for my left hand, and I can hardly wait. You get what you pay for!!

Money

Dear Gerry,

I did the math too.... which is why I am surprised there are not more doctors heading to Paris to get trained...it only takes about a week...then voila...millionaire in a year...what more could someone ask for?

Your math is really off

Larry, according to your logic when a drug company comes up with a wonder drug they should charge us more then they already do now because we are happy they can cure our ailment. I don't think anybody questions how great it is to have NA available from a skilled and knowldegable phsician but IMO he is taking advantage of those with limited options like the drug companies already do.

Your math is really off

Gerry,

You aren't seeing the true picture, only going by your assumptions. And everyone knows how that word begins. Dr Eaton spends at least one hour with every patient. The first part of the visit is the consultation and the second part is the procedure. My visit took the full time and then some. To say that someone only works 3 days and then does surgery and consultations the other two....what, you think that also isn't work??? So, if he spends at least one hour with each person, there is no way he could see as many as you claim.

Dr. Eaton

Will, So you take one hour per patient, 8 patients per day(most of us work 8 hr days) and do the math and it is close to one million dollars per annum for the 3 days he does NA. While I'm at it I'm going to call some drug companies of stock I own and complain they are not charging enough because they do a great job curing people, are a nice company and have a patent. But I want bigger dividends and a higher stock price.

Just to make it clear when my DC needs to be worked on I will go to Dr Eaton and pay his fee. I just don't like the feeling when someone has me by the (fill in the blank)

Dr. Eaton

When I had my finger done by Dr. Eaton the waiting room was full of DD patients. There were at least 10 of us. That was at 10 am. Some had NA done before and left. My finger took about 20 minutes. I returned to the waiting room after NA to show off my new straight finger and chat with the other DD folks. While I chatted two more DD patients came out after their DD. I think three per hour is about what I saw. I have no problem with Dr. Eaton's fee. I think it is a bargain.
