Re: Anyone know of good endo dr. in Chicago area?From: shawnamama3 (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat Jan 26 19:46:12 2008
Thanks Yvonne for responding. I had my surgery at Christ by Dr. Regan. However, I am unable to see him anymore because he is actually an GYNOncologist. At the time of the surgery it was probable to be endometriosis but questionable ovarian cancer. Luckily, it was not cancer. So, he has referred me to a OB/GYN in my area (Tinley Park) I am definitely willing to travel and would like someone in to help now before it comes back. I have looked into the Endometriosis Institute in Oakbrooke and the University of Chicago. I just am so afraid of going in for another surgery. It has only been about 2 1/2 months since my surgery and so far so good. I also have alot of scar tissue from 2 previous c-sections. Thanks for the info and if you have any other good advise please feel free to contact me. Thanks again, >Shawna, > >Who are you currently seeing. I am in the Chicago area too.
