Where am I coming from? #1. I live in a small community (200,000) and all the for profit doctors here, I would not go to. #2. I travel over 100 miles to go to a university teaching hospital. #3. They would have a interest in seeing your case and would look at it as a challenge. #4 many times they will take on a unique case at no charge. #5. University hospitals have the best of the best doctors and are the leaders in their field

3. I live in Rockford IL
4. I am not aware of any besides northwestern maybe in chicago
And do the university hospitals operate the same as regular hospitals or what’s the difference? Thanks
since asking the questions I researched teaching hospitals near Chicago. I didnt find anything promising. We have several excellent university hospitals in my area. (LA). I also researched accutane.. Super bad shit. One study even described the glans getting soft while shaft is hard. Accutane attacks your nerve receptors. If you took it for a long period your prognosis looks bleak. I react violently to several medications that no one else has ever had a problem with. One was an antibiotic commonly used. It caused the skin of my glans to shred off and bleed profusely. That continued for 3 years after I used the stuff. One medication to aid my digestive system. TOTAL depression. had no desire for sex or living for 3 moths. Stopped taking it and was normal 3 days later. You may be one of the 30% who react to Accutane. All my nerves were removed in a prostatectomy and I have an implant. Not a lot of feeling during sex. Soft numb cold glans some times. I dont know if an implant would even be worth it at 20. Life sucks.
