Guest guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 hey eileen, never heard of dr legnani is he a gi? but i do know that mount sinai has some of the best crohn's doctors in the country. so you should be in good hands. one of the premiere crohn's surgeons is there as well- forget his name. when i feel better i'll look up the various names as i am sure they are all colleagues and maybe you can ask the doctor if he is out of ideas as to whats wrong for him to discuss your case with other dr's. jodi > > made an appt with a dr legnani (Mt Sinai) as i saw his name affiliated > here - his receptionist or nurse mentioned gluten-free diets but didn't > seem to know what i meant scd wise - i'm switched so A) i'll be with an > scd doc and so many other weird symptoms many have been saying i > should be seen by a research hospital and they are top 10 > anyone know of him??? > thanks > eileen 6 weeks > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 hey eileen, of course hope you'll never need the surgeon name. sometimes though since they work in same hospital and are probably colleagues they discuss patient cases and " brainstorm " and i would tend to think that if you're going to a place that have knowledgeable crohn's/colitis/ibd dr's- maybe you can ask to have your case reviewed by colleagues or panel if the doctor doesn't have any ideas what's wrong with you.. dr's dont usually arent to keen on this approach- but hey its your health. jodi > > he is a gi - hoping i never need the surgeon one! feel better > thanks > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
