Chicago CRS recs for LIS?

Postby Chicagomom » 28 Jul 2014, 19:22

Hi! I'm new to the forum- been dealing with two anal fissures for aprox. 8 weeks ... I'm considering LIS at this point but struggling to find a surgeon - has anyone had positive experiences with surgeons in Illinois? or other advice? Thank you all so much!

Hi Chicagomom,

On the home page of this web site under the heading References & Websites, there is a list of top colon & Rectal Surgeons for USA. There are 10 top CRS surgeons listed for the Chicago Area. The ratings were done by peers. This would be a good place to start to select a surgeon. If you can get some positive patient comments off the internet about the surgeon you select off the list, I am sure you will have qualified surgeon.

Welcome and the best of luck with your LIS surgery.
