doing some research...

I'm shooting blanks trying to find out more information about Dr. Hoddinott that used to practice at St. Luke's in Bethlehem.  From what I understand he has relocated to central FL (where I am).  I'm at the beginning process of trying to find a DS surgeon.  There doesn't seem to be a lot of information him and the DS board people don't know a thing about him either.  Any assistance or information anyone can provide would be so greatly appreciated.

Thank you all ever so much...this is just too important to 'wing-it'

Well, not that I did research on DS surgeons.....or had the DS procedure.....but I haven't heard his name mentioned on this board....and I've been around for well over 2 years.  Granted - it's possible I missed the name.....but it doesn't sound familiar.

Good luck on your journey!

Unfortunately, like Pam - I've been here 3 years and haven't heard his name mentioned. St Lukes is an excellent hospital and I am sure that their program is as well - it is one of the "up and coming". They didn't have one when I was researching.

Good Luck!

My suggestion - go for the consultation and meet him, you'll get a good idea from that appointment.

below is the link for his page on OH.  There are many reviews by his patients.  I hope this helps.  I have heard his name before and yet I don't know where or why.  Also, google dr. hoddinott St. Lukes and you will get a list of results.  Google can be a wealth of information.
