I wanted to let everyone know I had my surgery w/Dr. Redan at
Celebration Health Hospital in Florida. Unfortunately my laparoscopy
turned into a laparotomy due to extensive intra-abdominal adhesions,
bowel obstruction and severe interstitial cystitis. Dr. Redan did a
cystoscopy, insertion of bilateral uretal catheters, hydrodistention,
diag. lap w/lysis of adhesions converted to open laparotomy and small
bowel resection. It was evident that it was unsafe to proceed with the
laparoscopy as they could not adequately distinguish the anatomy due to
the severety of the adhesions. Dr. Redan was wonderful, the hospital
was state of the art, the best part for me was there are only private
rooms. I am glad to be home and hope and pray that will be my last
surgery. Sherry Marie
