My surgeon in Ohio does revisions and just did surgery on my hubby who has had many, many abdominal surgeries with adhesions. Don't give up. Check out Dr. Allison Cleary and Dr. David Bruce in Dayton, OH. Good luck!

My surgeon is Dr. David Fallang in Middletown,Ohio. He is a kind and compassionate surgeon. I KNOW that he has done revisions and is willing to take on more "riskier" patients because he is extremely dedicated to treating the morbidly obese. He is not just in this to pad his statistics or his wallet. I am not sure how someone over the phone could "diagnose" your scar tissue. Give Dr. Fallang a call-(513) 424-7025. web site= [email protected] I am sure that he will at least order tests to determine if you are a candidate for revision. Hope this helps!!Don't give up--someone will help you.

Dr Schauer in pittsburgh may be close depending on where in ohio you are. In any case I am sure you will find someone, keep the faith and select a good surgeon.
