Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

My overall review!!
My surgeon Dr Pyle is amazing!!! He is caring, experienced, & attentive. I’m so glad I chose him. I will say in all the pre-op, no one truly prepared me for how tough recovery was. I cried many tears, but never regretted my decision!! I’d do it again!
I have suggestions for anyone going in for the same procedures I did. Hope you have a wonderful journey.
*The #1 best thing I did....Rent a recliner that is electric with a remote that will automatically lie you up & down, bring your feet up & down. You don’t want to do any twisting. I slept in mine for 3 weeks.
*Use your arms to pull up. There will be no control in your abdomen & you will cry if you try. Trust me on that!!
*Take the pain meds just like prescribed. Don’t think you won’t need it. When the pain is bad, it’ll be hard to get it under control.
*Constipation...is real just from having anesthesia & pain meds. Colace should be started as soon as you’re home. If you get no help, Fleets enemas are helpful.
*The purple hotdog bun....your va-jay-jay will be dark purple for the first week. Oh & it’s swollen. Don’t look..just don’t.
*Showers feel good & help loosen you up. Take one as many times are you are allowed.
*Be prepared for swell hell. Lots of it. It takes time to go down so always wear the compression. It actually helps hold you tight & will feel better.
*Arnicare gel & easy melt tabs will help your bruising. Also helps pain naturally. I took them regularly at week 3 when I stopped most of my pain meds.
*Some doctors do not believe in them but I did lymphoma massages starting at week 3. It helped with the swelling.
*I needed 24/7 care for the first week. The next week, I could move easier, but still needed some help. Week 3 I was good. Still sore & swollen, but mobile.
