Revision options
Hate to contribute to negative news here since overall this procedure is highly favorable, but it appears I will need a revision. At 4 mos AMS 700 won’t hold inflation. Tried holding deflate button and reinitiating with firm squeeze 3-4 times. Nada. My high volume Boston Scientific surgeon out of town 3 more weeks. Apparently no NP or MD colleague can evaluate. Thinking of seeing a different surgeon. Considering 4 hr drive to Atlanta for Hakky vs finding someone at an academic health center locally. Hakky gets extensive praise here. Any significant negatives connected to Atlanta travel or other logistics?

Re: Revision options
Don’t say where you’re from but Clavell in Houston should be a consideration. Not sure how caught up he is on surgeries but thinking he’s pretty short wait times

Re: Revision options
Houston not a practical option. Asking specifically about Hakky in Atlanta.
