Last week, after the nitwit who calls himself a urologist nearly killed me, I am off to find a new DaVince surgeon.

Please.....all I want to know is if anybody has any experience with Dr. Johnathan Colberg at Yale New Haven.

I know there are good surgeons in Hartford. and elsewhere.

Thanks,
Dave

Can you refresh our memories : what happened

Dave, I try to be a lighthearted, positive guy, but there is nothing lighthearted, or positive, about being near killed by anything, or anyone, much less a doctor!

All the best finding a new da Vinci guy/gal.

There you are Mel!

I'm exhausted telling the story over. In a week, my saga got bumped back to page 6!

Thanks Dave. Remember, somebody has to graduate at the bottom of the class. As long as they are not practicing on me...

Hopefully you will get some good recommendations

I've heard great things about Dr. Joseph Wagner.

If I did not like Dr. Hu upon my initial meeting I was going to see Dr. Wagner. He had done over 1,100 da vinci robotics as of over a year ago.

Good luck.

Hi GTO Dave,

Is this the screwy Dr and NP that did not force you to take a urine test AFTER you told them NO that you did not want to do the test ?

And they almost killed you over an almost contracted infection from an almost surgery

GTO, Don't know Colberg and I have not heard of him. Yale has a very good reputation though. I had surgery with Dr Wagner at Hartford Hosp and was very happy. Dr Kessler at CT Surgical is also supposed to be very good. I have also heard very good things about a Dr Friedmann (sp?) that works out of Backus Hosp in Norwich. Good luck in your search. BB
