Do any of the top doctors in US allow you to come back home for the 4 months of lengthening and PT?  Wife and 4 kids so will be very difficult to be away that long or to take them all with me. Currently scheduled somewhere in Nov 21, but they do not offer that option. 4 months instead of 3 because I am in my 50's.

because the one I went to see and subsequently scheduled with ONLY allows the PT to be done at his facility.  No option to return home for PT and only come back for followups- that is what poses the problem and why I asked.  I did not know there was an alternative.

Back off.  This was the first question I have ever asked on here and a valid one.  I wasn't familiar with the protocol and if it was appropriate to give specific information and also not necessary in this particular situation.  I have no other reason not to "say" who I went to see.  I am a valid participant in this forum with a real and reasonable question- one that others may have as well to help them with their decision!
