Donna,

Do you know if Dr. David Wiseman has a list of doctors in the U.S. that do laparoscopic adhesiolysis? I had never heard of Dr. Max Hammer before now. I'm going to google his name. Dr. Redan is a skilled, and very experienced general surgeon. Dr. Redan explained the seriousness of this surgery and the risk of adhesions entrapping/blocking the bowels. One could end up with a colostomy. If the doctor isn't using a product that prevents adhesions from reforming, I wouldn't risk another surgery because I could be worse off. Some people are more prone to getting adhesions than others.

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has had a positive experience with a general surgeon. Likewise, I'd like to hear from anyone who has had a negative experience.

Dr. Max Hammer, Springfield Clinic, Springfield, Illinois - he is a wonderful man, very sweet, kind and gentle AND a world class surgeon. Google him and see his lovely face!

Donna, did you just have surgery? Did I miss something??? I'm glad you are doing so well.
