I am 4 weeks post-op for TAH (kept ovaries), 7" vertical incision with approx. 9+ lbs of fibroids and uterus removed. Dr. Land was great! Very patient with my many questions and apprehensions. Explained everything in the detailed manner I needed it to be. Felt even more confident when he laid out his game plan, including placement of ureteral stents (d/t size of fibroids and uterus) by a urinary oncologist at the start of the hysterectomy procedure. Even with the vertical incision, I have had very little discomfort; I was off of pain meds by the fourth day following surgery. I'm feeling even better than I expected to at this point. I would recommend him to anyone in the Piedmont area of NC (and surrounding areas). I was also impressed with the facility/hospital--everything was "right there" -- I didn't have to go traveling across town to meet with the urological oncologist or have the MRI and ultrasound done--everything was all in one building.
Was it helpful to you?
