Looks like Chicago has a Shouldice-trained surgeon now

Seems one of the group’s docs has gone up to Toronto to learn the method. Not sure how many he’s done so far or the results.

I got my done 3 weeks ago by a general surgeon in Bloomington who was willing to do no mesh. I couldn’t wait any longer.

quote Dill:Wow! So needed. I called there several times asking about no mesh, and not getting a response.
If you are in the Chicago area, perhaps just make an appointment for a consultation with that particular surgeon (rather than trying to have information relayed back and forth by phone)?
Edit: It looks as though appointments with him are available via online booking.
