    parietex progrip removal, an exercise in futility?

    The real reason I posted on here was to hopefully be referred to an experienced removal surgeon in my area of the country. I have 2 pieces(bi-lateral inguinal) of parietex progrip and 1 piece of symbotex composite umbilical mesh. Im experiencing trouble from all three pieces currently but only wish to have one side of the groin + umbilical piece removed for now. I’m in the Midwest in Wisconsin and I only know of Dr Jacobs(who sounds very competent & thorough but is in New York) and Dr Ramshaw(who is my first choice but is in transition currently). Is there anyone else who removes mesh laparoscopically(with atleast 30+ removals under their belt) that’s located in the Midwest or even in or near Wisconsin?

    I also have another more realistic & innovative idea for freeing up the mesh by dissolving the tissue ingrowth to it in the pre-peritoneal space… This one is too good to share over the internet though(it actually involves chemistry & biology n’ stuff (: ), it could prove to be very lucrative if it works. I just need help finding the right surgeon to remove this stuff, then the recipe is theirs, lol.
