Hello Ohio Folks!

I was wondering if some people could give me some feedback on Dr. John Maguire of Dayton, Ohio.  He practices out of Miami Valley Hospital.

I was specifically wondering if anyone had surgery with another surgeon, and then turned to Dr. Maguire for a second opinion.  I had surgery back in August, and am very dissatisfied.  I have developed numerous complications including a surgical infection and now: MRSA.  I need another surgeon to have a look at me, as mine has been completely neglectful in her actions.

Thanks for any feedback, opinions, or experiences would be greatly helpful in choosing another surgeon for a second opinion.

Dr. Maguire is GREAT. He is one of the BEST. I had Dr Rita Hadley-Anderson but he was the second/asst when they were both in practice at Kettering. He left Kettering to head the WLS dept at MVH. If you are having trouble Dr. M is your GO TO GUY.  A lot of people go to him for revisions and fixes of what other docs have messed up.
Good Luck,
Robin

Dr Maguire is reportedly one of the best (a number of poeple I know have used him and been very pleased), so from that standpoint you would be in very good hands.  Be aware, however, that surgeons are often very reluctant -- for potential liability reasons and/or out of fear of being dragged into a lawsuit against the first surgeon -- to see patients who are having trouble with their original surgeon.

Good luck.  I hope you're starting to feel better.

I had Dr Maguire do my surg.  I did have an issue with blood and had to get two units and also a reaction to medications  I was back at the ER because of the reaction he was right on the ball to get things back in order.  He even checked on me three times a day at the hospital.  His office staff is great and very helpful.  He answered all of my questions no matter how stupid they seemed.  I am very happy that I had him help me start my journey.  He has done many revisions also,  My husbands best friend had hers done by him she also is very pleased.

Hope this helps, Just my thoughts
