Looking for a surgeon to do umbilical hernia procedure, any advice would be appreciated.

I had emergency gall bladder surgery a couple of months ago. The Villages Hospital contacted Dr. Gerard Melanson to do the procedure, and I was very pleased with his services. He even volunteered to do the surgery on a Sunday since I was in considerable paid.

Nice guy, very competent surgeon, very pleased patient! He is listed in TV phone book.

Should have said "considerable pain." I did not pay anything (thanks to Medicare and private insurance). Now, if my fingers would just work right....
