Does anyone know any surgeons who could re-do lap hill's repair? I tried to look up the web, but couldn't find anyone other than those at Swedish and near Tacoma area. If it is not allowed to post the names here, can you please email me the information? Thanks in advance.
I had a lap hill's repair in Pacific Northwest in 2013. 3 months after the surgery, something went wrong during the chiropractic session, then reflux symptom started to recur. Initial diagnosis showed that I was ok. I did try to contact my surgeon for additional help, but he did not respond at the end. Recently, my reflux symptom had got worse and barium swallow showed that I had both reflux and hiatal hernia again. I had talked to a local surgeon (in Canada) about redoing the surgery, but he said he cannot do it laparoscopically and need to take down the whole repair before redoing it with Nissen. So I am in need of further opinion.
