Kang vs. the German surgeons part 2
Folks…first thanks so much for all the input here..especially thanks to Watchful…for his in depth research and analyis…As i recover from my removal surgery and prepare for further repair surgery I am determined not to make any more mistakes. As our friend William Bryant is fond of saying—this area is a complete minefield….I made the right decision to remove my mesh with Dr. Belyansky–he is clearly the best in the world at lap mesh removal…but now the jury is still out on who the best tissue/multi modality surgeon is. Contrary to Watchfuls assertion…i have yet to read a single negative report about Dr, Kang in terms of outcomes. I know that doesnt mean there havent been any…but I even chatted with a korean guy who poured over his reviews in korea and found zero negatives…that almost sounds like Desardas claim he never has recurrances…but still I think its helpful information. Watchfuls post about Dr. Conze got me digging into his stuff…he sure looks impressive. But now Peter C surfaces with some critiques of the work of dr. msucheweck. Unlike this FB groups this forum does not have a files section…which would be incredibly helpful…the top tissue and removal doctors could be listed and folks wouldn have to scroll a bazillion threads to get answers…in the end…you have an inguinal hernia…you dont want mesh….it seems like Conze may be the best option if you have a complex case–for instance recurrance after mesh removal…Kang is right up there too in my view…and certainly the most customer service friendly physician i have encountered….William Bryant…i know you are a fanatical researcher as well…can you tell the group which way you are leaning to get your repair? I think the shouldice clinic is not the place to go anymore…even Bruce Rosenberg who I understand gets paid to refer people there says it has changed significantly. So who is the new king of the mountain…your go too pick if you have a hernia? Would love to hear from folks along with any reasoning they have. Forget the distance…forget the cost…focus solely on the surgeon who will likely give you the best outcome…sadly it seems like there are only about 15 people on this forum…we need some more….
