Bev, I forgot that YOU were the divine authority on Germany, Dr. Korell, Dr. Krushinski, Dr. Reich, surgery, techniques, and you know every single thing there is to know about allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll of it. Thanks for the reminder!

Dear friends,
--
 
Regarding adhesiolysis procedures being performed in Germany, there IS
NO major differences in either procedure that will dictate a better
outcome for the patient one over the other! The selective opinions are
of each patient, respective of thier own case and all subjective, not
objectively shared!
 
My post will not only be objective, it will be the facts of the matter,
nothing more, nothing less and from first hand experiences with BOTH
surgeons, procedures and facilities! There is no one who knows it better
then I do, no one! And that is not a debatable issue as I will not allow
it to become one. I am the one who set up the Germany surgery centers
and I remain the one who knows everything that goes on in each of
them..no one else knows what I know, and that is a fact!
 
It is my expert opinion that both Dr. Korell and Dr. Kruschinski offer
a high quality adhesiolysis with the potential of success and relief of
ARD symptoms in the adhesiolysis procedure each one performs.
 
In conjunction with an adhesion barrier, meticulous hemostasis at the
end of the procedure, and the perfected surgical technique each surgeons
uses, the ARD patient has the highest chances of not reforming Denovo (
new) or reformed adhesion post surgically!
 
There is little to no difference in adhesion formation post surgically
due to the use of CO2 or not using CO2! The measure of the difference is
so minute that it doesn't even matter to mention it, a mute point indeed
for selecting a surgery of quality! ( By the way, open laporotomies do
NOT have gas used.)
Adhesion formation is rampant if the procedure is not performed with
skill and proper technique, which takes years and MANY adhesiolysis
procedures done by the surgeon to perfect the skill to perform an
adhesiolysis via laporoscopy!
 
My determinations that BOTH surgeons offer rewarding opportunities for
the victims of ARD is based on my observations and experiences with each
of them at their respective facilities, as well as many determining
factors that I took into consideration when assisting with the opening
of BOTH facilities to accept and render services to ARD patients!
 
I don't care how many or who has had success with whom, I know every
single thing that each surgeon has to offer the ARD patients that go to
them and I also know that every single patient who claims success from
either surgeon rates that success on their respective cases, none are
the same nor alike in any way other then adhesions are lysed and they
hope they remain that way..many continue to suffer chronic, disabling
pain and symptoms, but are now spared some symptoms of the adhesions,
few patients achieve total recovery from all the symptoms of ARD that
have impacted their respective lives! Many, far to many will never have
some or most of their most infringing symptoms resolved, never!
 
There have been some victims of ARD who are/were fortunate enough to be
able to get to Germany for a surgery, but MOST cannot and will not ever
be able to get there due to many very valid reasons. Regardless of
wants, likes, hopes or dreams or that anyone thinks one should simply
get to Germany no matter what or because they did it, most simply will
never get there, that's a fact!
 
What I state now is 100% fact of the matter, like it or not!
Robin has had success with Dr. Korell, and I am extremely happy for
her. I spent time with this "redheaded beauty" in Germany and watched
as her first surgery's did not offer her the rewards we had hoped for,
it was terribly sad for all of us! Now today she can share that she has
in fact regained some of her life back, good for her, she did well!
Why wouldn't we let Robin share her joy and her success, my goodness,
heaven forbid someone be happy and feel well if they didn't go to
Daniel!
She isn't looking to debate her story, she is simply sharing it, she is
happy, what is so wrong in allowing her a moment to shine??
It certainly didn't take away from anyone else who had success and
shared them in a post, over and over and over again,it simply is sharing
a happy moment...is that to much to allow on here??
It is so sad and unfortunate when it appears that someone else isn't
happy if the success was not achieved the way she thinks it "should"
have been? I cannot fathom the mind set of someone who would challenge
someone else's success and try to beat it to death!
Robin you did it this time, you beat this horrid disease! Enjoy your
life dear!
 
The truth is many WILL get well by going to Korell, and he IS more
reasonably priced then Frankfurt as the facility he practices in is a
public facility verses Frankfurt's private facility. Dr. Korell is a
kind, compassionate, educated and skilled surgeon who performs a very
skilled adhesiolysis with an effective adhesion barrier..and Dr. Daniel
K is a kind, compassionate skilled surgeon who performs a very skilled
adhesiolysis with an effective adhesion barrier! It all depends on who
you hear the success story from..I am of the opinion that Dr. Harry
Reich offers the most effective adhesiolysis in the world! Anyone wonder
why I might be of that opinion! :-)
 
There is no real dire or magnificent differences in either adhesiolysis
performed by these two respected surgeons, they have different
preferences, but nothing so drastic that one is better then the other!
Both offer VERY similar results, and they offer the best chances of an
ARD sufferer getting as well as they will ever get in an
adhesiolysis...the facilities are different, the costs are different,
the procedures are proving effective with both surgeons and it is due in
much part to the use effective adhesion barrier being used in
conjunctional with their respective procedures. Nothing more, nothing
less..but all the facts of this matter!
 
I have a favorite of these two, and for LOTS of reasons, but no one has
ever asked me who and why, so I do not share that! And it really is of
no importance either, for each respective ARD patient who wants to
secure information about adhesiolysis in Germany, it is best to make
your selection of surgeons based on information that is relevant to YOUR
medical case, not based on the opinions or desires of another! It is
important to share stories, there will be success in other countries
aside of Germany, the USA included and more centers of excellence will
open up and there will be success in them as well....for now, each to
his own and thank GOD we have success's now and then, it beats the
usual, the secrecy surrounding ARD and feeling your alone in all of
this!
 
May all victims of ARD find peace within their pain and suffering, some
day, some way, some how and some where!
 
I am happy for you Robin and I am happy for Melissa, and all who have
secured improvements in their symptoms! These success's are the reason I
spent the time I did in securing these surgeons and centers..for those
who would make it over to Germany, to offer hope to others, and let me
say this..
you may not hear of me or from me often, but "I am not finished yet!"
 
Beverly
