Hi Steven,
You can visit Somnus' website at www.somnus.com for information about the Somnoplasty procedure. I am not sure what your doctor has heard about our procedure, our clinicals are going well and the procedure is proving to be safe and relatively painless. You can also call Somnus at 408 773-9121 and the receptionist will give you an 800 number to call for more information. Our clinical sites are limited at this time, so you might not be able to find anyone near where you are. If you like you can send me your physician's name and I will forward it to our Clinical Affairs department; perhaps they can convince him to give it a try. You can also e-mail me if you have any technical questions about the procedure. I can be reached at tthorson@somnus.com. I hope this information is useful for you.
