To whom it may concern,
Iam a 18 year old who had seprafilm put in about a
year and a half ago and i did great.I have no adhesion
pain to this day,i had it put in my abdomen.But just
to let you know i called the company who suplies it
and they gave me a name of a doctor who put it in and
that how i found out.So i just what to give you the
name of the company and iam sure they can help you
find a doc who puts it in like they did me.The company
name is Genayme Biosurgery and the number is
1800-284-2876 and just tell them your looking for a
docotr who puts seprafilm in for back pain patients
and they should be able to help you.Good luck and i
will be praying for you!
