surgeons for adult OBPI

Post by tnmoore »

I am a 31 yr old OBPI, and as of now I am planning to see Dr. Nath, but I would like to know what other doctors see adult OBPI. I have read many doctors on this message board however most of them specialize in only children. I would like to research other physicians and their procedures. Any names of physicians would be greatly appreciated, and the state they are from. Thanks a bunch

Tina,

You can go to the medical resource directory and see what the docs themselves have said about whether they do surgery on adults. Be sure to read the questionnaire responses as that is one of the questions.

That is actually what I have done, and I have not found too many doctors who perform surgeries on adults. I would like to know what people have to say about the physicians out there, and if there are other names of physicians that I have not heard of yet. Thanks for the information though.....

Dr Shenaq (who is listed on this site as working with both children and adults) is whom I have been seeing. I am thankful everyday that I have found him.
