Re: Excision Specialist who is covered by insurance. Please readFrom: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed Jul 30 16:13:35 2008
''I am seeing Dr. John F. Dulemba out of Denton TX (Dallas Area.) This doctor is amazing. He does excision surgery with the DaVinci Robot. He is currently the training doctor for Dr. Redwine who is learning to use the Robot in his practice. '' The above is from Nicole's original post. I wasn't sure why the other day you were raving about this doctor when all you had was one visit with him. Why recommend him to others when you don't know him, or much about him. Your very first post about going to see him was only a very short time ago. Why bash other women here when they're bringing up the truth, and logic? Why meet someone once and believe that everything they tell you is the truth, right away? Even before your immature rants, you were not a reliable source for women who might consider him for surgery. Then for you to think one person could be all the ''anons'' is pure fantasy. If you like him so much, why didn't you share more info about specifics? Maybe he didn't offer them? Where does he think you have endo? Locations? What's the expected recovery time? Why is the davinci robot better than other types of surgery? Do you know the other types, and their strenths? Why would he be ''training'' basically the ''Father of excision surgery'' as I think of Dr Redwine? (and I do not know him at all). I had never heard of Dr Dulemba before this board, but I certainly had heard of Dr Redwine. In other words, to put it basically, why would a world-wide known expert be ''trained'' by a lesser known doctor? That doesn't mean Dr Dulemba is not a good doctor and doesn't help people. But it's like saying Dr Dulemba and his methods are superior to Dr Redwine. Your following posts also contained false info as to his working with other doctors and their methods. Maybe he didn't go into that with you. I'd be concerned in that case. You ask people to contact you with questions. Did you think that people would only ask you ''postive'' questions? To prop you up? Everyone should cast a critical eye at the doctor / hospital that they consider for surgery. The fact that you crumbled when that was mentioned as something that should be done is very concerning. If someone is ''all that'' then they should be able to withstand scrutiny. Several very good endo doctors take insurance. Taking insurance does not mean one is less of a doctor than others who don't. What should matter to a woman is, how will she feel after surgery? Is the doctor aware of all types and forms of endo and able to provide her with relief? How often does he do hysterectomies as a form of ''relief''? She should ask questions and more questions and still more questions. I know of several people that if they had just asked more questions, would have made different decisions for their treatment. Even when the best questions ARE asked, she might make the wrong decision. But if a doctor is telling her he is involved with another doctor and HE IS NOT, then please don't keep insisting something is true. Saying it repeatedly does not make it true. Other women should pay attention to what is really happening. Having your friends come here and bash the women who don't agree with you is also not right. This is not so much for you, since you say you don't read here or post here any longer. It's more for the women who will search and come up with these posts as references. A more accurate statement to have made would have been ''In my first visit I was very impressed with him.'' I have gone through this before, and know of other women, upon meeting a doctor once, then discovered their flaws later. Everyone has flaws, how important it is to know a doctor's limits before you are the ''mistake'' that you didn't think would happen. Lawsuits can be dismissed on technicalities, that when amended, or appealed, can continue on. The lawsuit was not without merit, and when you read the facts you can realize that no one would have wanted to be in the position that the woman was, after surgery. Endo is tricky, and many things can happen. If you don't want to listen to someone, that's fine. You can do whatever you want in choosing a surgeon. But don't attack others when neither you nor Dr D was attacked. That doesn't do much for his image.
