Title: Tampa General / USF
Post by: JDJ925 on February 03, 2006, 03:17:44 pm

I am planning to have trans-lab surgery for AN at Tampa General. The surgeon is Dr. Van Loveren of the University of South Florida. I am curious to know if any other members are his patients. If so, any info you could share will be appreciated.

Hi. I had surgery on November 17, 05 with Dr. Van Lovern and Dr. Bartels at Tampa General. I was very impressed with both docs and I am recovering extremly well. I am already swimming and running ( i was very active before surgery). My tumor was pretty large and that I was told that is why I had both surgeons. My operation was 10 hours. Good luck. You are in excellent hands!
