"Cleveland Clinic was my destination of choice for treatment of my inoperable brain tumor. I had complete faith in Dr. Barnett and his staff. The treatment with Gamma Knife radiosurgery was so easy; I was in and out the same day. I could have gone to a number of other places for my care, but I knew Cleveland Clinic would do it best."
