I agree that Shands is the best hospital to go for any major procedure as my medical background is with a large nationally known teaching hospital. The problem is, from what I understand, is you may need a MD referral for surgery. Unless you get one from Han, you may not be able to go there. This is what I understand but I stand to be corrected. I have been an RN on the surgical floor at TVRH for many years and still recommend Dr. Celia Nelson if you elect to stay local; nothing against Dr. Han, Dr. Nelson would just be my choice.
