Your going to get different names from people all over the country, most of them giving you NAMES and not much more. It seems that people that have had successfull surgeries do not often go to a messageboard to help others find a good surgeon. I think the best way to go is to ask other surgeons in your area who they consider the top docs and why. After all they know who the best are in their field, just as you or I would know who the best are in our fields.
