    Dr. Towfigh – Neurectomy

    Hello Dr. Towfigh,

    Hope all is well. I haven’t been up to see you yet because I am fighting a bit of a battle with my insurance company. I am under an HMO and they obviously they don’t want to cover anything outside of my network. I requested a referral to you but they want me to see one of their doctors. I will hopefully have this worked out soon.

    One question I have, Dr. Towfigh: Why is it that the vast majority of doctors out there are unaware of the work that you, Dr. Chen, and others have done for the treatment of chronic groin pain? Pretty much every doctor I have been to about my problem has told me “I’m sorry, you have permanent nerve damage in your groin. There is nothing that can be done.” If I had not done my own research, I would not have even known about you and Dr. Chen, because all of the doctors I have talked to have told me that there is no cure for genitofemoral nerve injury.

    Why aren’t more physicians aware that there is treatment out there?
