    top hwrnia in wisvonsin

    Hello, fellow mesh patient from Wisconsin…
    Now unless I’m mistaken, I have found there to be no surgeons in WI with experience removing lap placed inguinal hernia mesh unless it was infected(flat mesh not plugs mind you).
    I’ve seen Dr goldblatt who is a very nice guy & sincerely cares about his patient’s safety which you can tell by just meeting with him, but he haden’t removed my type of mesh before(I wish he had done even just one removal cause that was the only deal breaker there).
    So I moved on to see Dr Greenberg who is also a nice guy but a little more wooden seeming personality-wise. He had only removed plugs or umbilical hernia mesh TAPP(no flat pre-peritoneal mesh), usually only when they were infected & only when he was replacing it with phasix for a trial I believe. He was no longer part of a trial at that time so… He sort of dismissed me with a suggested gluten intolerance, saying further that hes never had to remove inguinal mesh like mine before..?
    I do believe however that both of these guys are great at putting the stuff in, but goldblatt has far more experience in years as a surgeon.
    I hope this helps, please let me know of any removal surgeons in Wisconsin that I may have overlooked Dr Towfigh…
