Guest guest Posted August 31, 2001 Report Share Posted August 31, 2001 , I am soooo glad you are pursuing this !!! I had two 'second opinions' if you will .... done via phone and e-mail, with the specifics of the sigmoid colectomy shared, and BOTH said that although some colectomies would be considered contraindictions (... I KNOW I didn't spell that one right!!) to the DS surgery, a sigmoid colectomy was not one of them. Please don't give up, and keep me posted !!! I've scheduled my consult with Dr. Hess (Ohio), so you know he's an option for your case as well .... but I know you don't have much flexibility to work and would like to stay closer to home. I don't know anything about Dr. Macura personally, but I know I've read very good posts about him. Hopefully someone with first hand knowledge will post back to you soon Bye, Donna ================================================================================\ =========================== Well, I have a second opinion with Dr. Jerzy Macura. He's the director of the Obesity Surgery program at Staten Island University Hospital. I could not find information on him. Can anyone help me? -- S pensiondude@... - email x4399 - voicemail/fax __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
