    Try contacting Zyga Technology, Inc, 700 10th Ave South, Suite 20, Minneapolis, MN 55415 for a referral to a doctor near you using this procedure. Many of these companies have a nurse doing referrals to doctors trained in their technology. I know iFuse by SI-Bone has a nurse giving out doctor names.
