Hope all is well, and you guys are finding your way out of the snow. I first wanted to personally thank you for all your help that you have given me through this entire experience. When I was first was told about having to have the surgery by my original OB/GYN, I sought out for a second opinion from an expert in this disease. That's when I came across Dr Kanayama's office. When I called the office, Sabrina took the time to listen to my story and insisted that I get in as soon as possible. I thank you Sabrina for that because Dr. Kanayama found that I had severe stage III endometriosis. I had surgery on Dec. 23, and had complete bilateral ovarian reconstruction as well as my uterus, which from the surgical report the endometriosis had invaded everything. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me and explain the need to get into a surgeon like Dr. Kanayama for appropriate care. The recovery has been long and tough, but I appreciate the time you have taken with me on the phone several times to console, as well as encourage that everything that I was feeling was appropriate.
