My wife is currently being treated for SAA at Vanderbilt under the care of Dr. John Greer. We are from Eastern Arkansas. We have had a wonderful experience with Vanderbilt. Right now she is undergoing immunosuppression, she received ATG (horse) and is currently on Cyclosporine. If she has to get a BMT we will go there as well. He did tell us that they do very few transplants for AA and the transplants they do for AA most are for children. I am very confident in their ability to handle the BMT and I trust Dr. Greer.
Since we live about 3 hours away, she sees a Dr. here for her CBC's and transfusions when needed. And we are able to have open communication with Dr. Greer and his assistants instantly through their patient website. I can send him a message and usually get a response within an hour or so or if it is something urgent we can call and speak to someone immediately.
