Default Need specialist recommendations

Hi everyone, We just moved here and I need a recommendation for a Urologist and a Gastrointerologist.

I have a kidney stone (now) and Cystitis from radiation 5 years ago.
Also radiation colitis, same.

Thank''s in advance

As a practicing RN, I would highly recommend Dr Richard Truesdale or any of his collegues for GI and Dr David Brunetti for urology. The previous post lists Dr Vaidya and Dr Matthew who are in with Truesdale.

Another vote for Dr. Truesdale. As for urology, I would go to Shands in Gainesville and see Dr. Bird. He is more than excellent!!!

Saw Dr. Vaidya. Would never go to him again. I explained to him what I had. He said that was not possible. Afterwards at home I read some literature I had picked up in his waiting room and it talked all about the condition. I also saw it later discussed on TV a couple of times, plus have since read about it on-line. But he insisted that is was not possible and gave me heck for taking too many vitamins and medications for my problem. I ended up having surgery for my condition. But he got huffy and insisted that it was not possible what I was telling him. I wanted to tell him he needed to read the literature in his own waiting room so he could learn about it.

I have seen Dr. Tran and was very pleased with her and her office staff.
