I was referred to Dr. Ivy for options on my Hysterectomy and I thought he was very polite and answered all my questions and concerns. My surgery is scheduled and I feel very comfortable knowing he will be doing my surgery.

Outlined exactly what options I had to deal with fibroids, extreme anemia from heavy bleeding and potential uterine cancer with a very positive and confident attitude which made all the difference for me. Went thru two doctors before being referred to Dr. Ivy, and was an absolute nervous wreck by the time I arrived at my appt. The doctor who referred me to Dr. Ivy took one look at my pelvic ultrasound and said that neither he nor his hospital were equipped to handle my situation and that he was referring me to an Gynecologic Oncologist. Talk about feeling the bottom drop out of your world! After my appt. with Dr. Ivy, I felt hopeful for the first time in several weeks. Had my surgery (a Laparoscopic-Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy of the uterus and one ovary) one week later and am now at home recovering. My boss had also told me that his mother was treated by Dr. Ivy and he highly recommended him.

Dr. Ivy is a gynecologic oncologist in my area of Arkansas and I was referred to him for a hysterectomy due to months of abnormal uterine bleeding, ovarian cysts, and chronic, severe pelvic pain. Dr. Ivy listened to my concerns and then we discussed my options. He explained the risks involved with the surgery and with surgical menopause if I decided to not keep my ovaries. He told me I was a candidate for the da Vinci Robotic Assisted Hysterectomy and gave me a brochure detailing this new technology. I was very impressed with his politeness and patience during my appt. Due to the pain I was in, Dr. Ivy scheduled my surgery for the following week. I was very happy that he was able to get me on the surgery schedule so quickly, as I didn't want to suffer one more day. The day of my surgery he visited with me in the holding area and reassured me that everything would go smoothly in the OR. I have had the absolute best surgical experience ever with Dr. Ivy and the da Vinci Robotic Technology. I only spent one night in the hospital and the next morning Dr. Ivy's PA came to talk to me about my medications, discharge and follow up instructions. She was very nice and answered all my questions. As of today, I am waiting on my pathology report and I see Dr. Ivy tomorrow for my post-op appt. I can say without a doubt he is one of the most caring and compassionate surgeons I have ever worked with. I would not hesitate to see him again in the future or to refer him to friends or family. His office is comfortable, warm and inviting and his staff is friendly and attentive to each individual's needs.
