I have been having terrible bowel, colon and rectal problems for over a year. I have been to every doctor I can think of. This week I am supposed to see Dr. lahr. I saw that some of you have heard of him. Has anybody actually seen him or had surgery with him?

What kind of doctor is he? Never heard of him before, but would like to know.

Kelly-that's great you're going to see Dr Lahr. I've never seen him (unfortunately) but I've read about him and he sounds terrific.Abigail--that link you just posted on a previous thread is a link from Dr Lahr's website and if you click on the "about us" link--I'll post it here--you can read about him. he wrote the book "shining light on constipation"good luck to both of you--I'll keep you--and all of us--in my prayers http://www.constipation.net/about.html?[/URL]
