    Continued proliferation of Millikan tension-free plug and patch repair?

    Agree 100%, and that goes well beyond hernias!! Besides asking other doctors and finding communities like this, how would you recommend laypeople go about looking for the most up-to-date specialists in any field? Where/how much they publish? Which institutions they are with?

    I’ve been a bit lost looking for the right person to consult here in Chicago. Thought I was onto something when I first read the plug study, but have serious misgivings about a surgeon who named a procedure after himself, cited it as the “gold standard” only to have specialists abandon it within a decade (seemingly without replacing it with something significantly better).
