Patient Reviews
Jul 07, 2023
I was born in 1979, rushed from Arcadia Method Hospital to Childrens Hospital in LA, where I ended up being in the care of Dr. McComb. I had a hole in my lower back and I was born with Spina Bifida Myelomeningocele. After a few days of measuring my head, he had determined that I had Hydrocephalus and installed a VP Shunt. I'd had several revisions done by him and a Spinal Cord untethering. I last saw him in 2005, where he referred me to someone else, due to my age and age constraints at Childrens LA. While he did refer me, I never saw the new doctor, since he is also a pediatric doctor. Last time I saw Dr. McComb, I was 26, and the last thing I said to him, was thank you for giving me 26 years of life. I'm now 44. I'm worried I'll never find a new doctor as good as he is. The only thing that frustrated me, is that there were times when I was there in his office, with my mom and he would get called away to surgery and we'd have to reschedule. Annoying, but clear testament to how good he is, and for neurosurgery, that's of utmost importance.
