Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
DR. MICHAEL SARR will schedule abdominal exploration operations for 'neuromas' if you think there's another old suture in an abdominal incision causing nerve or tissue inflammation & irritation. Dr. Sarr ARROGANTLY won't do any scans or studies - as he's too busy playing games/jokes with the medical students (guys mostly). The operation will be mysteriously scheduled for the next day, and he'll have special 'clearance' arranged to railroad you into tomorrow's suddenly open slot. You will tell him that you refuse anesthesia, medical students and residents - and he'll arrange that they have anesthesia drug you 20 minutes before the procedure and the resident, who never saw you before in her life (Dr. Baghai), will start the procedure and make a mess unlike anything you've ever seen done in surgery in the continental US. And you've told him 3 times that the resident is not to touch anything - but she can WATCH. But Dr. Sarr wasn't listening and thinks everything is a MAYO DEMO.

When Dr. Sarr doesn't find a suture or abnomality, as he didn't study the problem, but took what you said at 'face' value (as a possible 'guess') to schedule the procedure - instead of closing and doing the missing workup - he will proceed to cut every abdominal muscle - claiming that he feels SOMETHING - and then remove a inflammed normal nerve as a pathological 'geewhiz' specimen, claiming that he also sees some FOREIGN DEBRIS which never shows up on the pathology report. He can't admit that he didn't do the HOMEWORK and so your abdomen is cut up until he finds some excuse to stop - and the Mayo administration thinks this is ok.

It's all a medical student and resident show at Mayo Clinic Surgery for the poor sucker patient, and the procedure Dr. Sarr does was never discussed, and no one will tell you how many of these he has done or the long-term results. None of the patients seem to be seen back post-operatively, and Mayo Clinic never notices this.

This procedure was never mentioned when you spoke with Dr. Sarr. The patient is seriously hurt, and Dr. Sarr is just a bundle of laughs and one-liners - he conned you. And you've of course said that he is not to touch the abdominal muscles during the procedure, but he doesn't care as he wants to impress the students, the resident, and the OR staff by dissecting and pulling up every abdominal muscle. And the anesthesiology guy only saw you 20 minutes before and said he would 'watch' you - you never said the words 'agree to general anesthesia.' And he doesn't watch you - he lets you get BUTCHERED. Anesthesia won't question the lack of workup or studies on the chart either.

You will never again be without pain, and plastic surgery won't be able to fix what he, the resident, and the untrained medical student did to you - for a retained suture that in every other institution is under local, without a farce, and without a DR. LOVE PROCEDURE for improved life satisfaction. Now when anyone touches you, you will be in extreme pain. [Dr. Love was an ob-gyn in Ohio who did special gynecological operations to enhance sexual pleasures.] Dr. Sarr does an abdominal exploration, for an old suture, cutting the fascia of every muscle, with no emergency or study of the problem, and leaves you disfigured, mutilated and in literal shock. He then tells you to go to the hotel and never sees you in a post-op visit. Dr. Sarr tells you to 'write' him a note about how you are doing. And when you contact him that things look very bizarre, he cancels you as a patient. And Mayo Clinic defends this, but no one knows how to 'fix' the Dr. Sarr procedure back to the normal abdominal wall, and no one at Mayo Clinic can explain why he did this to you.

The incision won't heal as the Medical Student apparently spit into it (you will smell of his black cologne as if he massaged you and groped you), the muscle fascias will rip apart, and contacting the State Medical Board of Minnesota will do nothing to Dr. Sarr or Dr. Baghai. Dr. Baghia, wherever she is these days, can't cut/sew or make a surgical decision, and no matter how stupid did what Dr. Sarr told her to do in those days. The muscles won't ever heal well, and no one will understand why Dr. Sarr did this procedure to remove a 'normal' nerve. Especially as Mayo Clinic in Rochester has every consult, scan and endoscope available - but they don't use them - at least not DR. SARR of the exploration operation.

Mayo Clinic has promoted him to Chief of General Surgery and lets him do these procedures without question - though you can't find out anything about them as to statistics. Jill Beed, the Chief Legal Counsel, just thinks he's 'wonderful' - obviously has a 'personal' adoration for Dr. Sarr. You'll TRUST Dr. Sarr because the Mayo Clinic name is behind him, and it was just supposed to be a procedure under local (if Angelina Jolie can deliver twins awake, why can't the Mayo Clinic just check part of an incision for sutures/scar tissue under local?). As your parents think this is just a 'local procedure, they didn't take a flight to be there. Dr. Sarr will then lie gangbusters to your parents after he tells you that he removed a quarter size NEUROMA. Dr. Sarr will produce two versions of the operative report so that you can't figure out what really happened, and then threaten your father MD. If anyone is to be under GENERAL ANESTHESIA, then some family member should be allowed or REQUIRED to be there - especially if the procedure is NOT AN EMERGENCY. But he doesn't think in any common sense way, allow family to be there, or plan anything except to cut everything. Maybe his daughter will have to be cut up like this before he stops doing this to other people's daughters.

Why the rush, the short-sell, the multilation for student pleasure? Dr. Sarr tells the students that they have to get you back to . . . and you have told him 3 times that this is not to be a MEDICAL STUDENT DEMO or circus - but they don't get that message and have a field day touching you. Mayo Clinic will not stop students & residents from attempting procedures that they don't know how to do, on patients they have never seen and know nothing about. The students & residents don't read the chart.

Patients are advised to steer clear of Dr. Sarr, Dr. Baghai and the Mayo Clinic. Definitely don't trust them that ANYTHING they say is TRUE, take a bodyguard with you to all encounters, and insist on a written consent form. Because Jill Beed has arranged that there are no written consent forms, anything that Dr. Sarr says or does is allowed. Dr. Sarr is the Dr. Love of Minnesota and the students shouldn't be around any patient procedures in the main hospitals - there are plenty of clinics (and dogs) to practice in. The doing of procedures that were never discussed needs to stop.

This article, apart from being poorly written, seems to be a rant against the entire medical establishment. Mayo is a teaching hospital, not to mention one of the best hospitals in America and the world. People are not traveling from all across the globe to get a taste of simple midwest living. If this person did not want students learning from her case, I am sure there are plenty of private hospitals willing to take her as a patient. The fact remains, she chose to receive her care at a teaching hospital when she could have gone else where. I hope Dr. Sarr never has to read this pointless diatribe of an unbalanced women.

All of the following is my own personal opinion only. John - Califon, New Jersey Intersted Person - Shelby Ohio,Ohio It's not good to ATTACK SOMEONE ELSE as part of discussion, but some folks clearly have other ground rules... Interested Person and/or John claims he didn't harass Rita, he was just getting 'the other side out! Look at his comments below and ask yourself if the following quotes are the 'other side' or just plain harassment. It is very clearly ONLY HARASSMENT! Everyone check out some of the fine WRITTEN INSULTS from one, the other or both of these two nut-jobs. I don't guarantee the accuracy of these quotes, so please check them for yourself. Interested Person and/or John is miserable and uses his WRITTEN INSULTS quoted BELOW, to make himself feel good about himself...but reality settles in. Deep down, he hates himself, so he hates others. Others don't want to be around him because he ultimately brings everyone down with him. It's just about his need for SELF GRATIFICATION" that is causing unnecessary harassment of a very mentally person! This is just a sample of the WRITTEN INSULTS. You will be SO GLAD they JUST HAD TO write this stuff for all of you, just because you evidently DESPERATLY needed to know FOR SOME REASON. Are you GLAD you know the following? ------------------------------ "Could you be one of Case Western's biggest mistakes?" "Is it possible that the biggest Case Western Medical School mistake was YOU?" "Andromeda and Rita are in ways sisters of a feathers. Their lives are in the toilet." "Rita is every type of ist" there is: Racisit, Sexist, Antisemetic, etc, etc. and chooses to blast that to the world. She's also probably Bi-Polar and I think she's on the low end of her cycle...she'll come back in blazes when she goes manic again." "Their lives are in the toilet(Rita and Andromeda), but yet they started off life(they assumed) so well." "I'm sure of little intertest at this point...just time to sit around and wait for Rita to get back on her high horse and start typing. "Don't even start your bullshit trolling with me. Edgeman has beaten you silly. Do you really want more?" "You are not your mommy as much as you like to be a fraud and pretend to be her." "You are not your mommy which makes you a fraud and liar." "Your ignornace is what's hilarious on this whole site." "When are you finally going to leave like you promised in your fraudulent schneider report?" "Fraud was stopped and your ability to butcher people was rightfully taken away." "It's a free site and I am within my right to post in your fraudulent garbage complaints and expose you just as you are allowed to post garbage like you know what is going on in life in general. "Did you cry 'sexist' everytime someone pointed out problems with your behavior, attitude or other problem?" "Did you make everyone's life so miserable they just 'passed you on?'" "After reading all this, think deep to yourself. If you were in deep medical doo-doo, would you want this person to be your only physician?" "of course, your postings are so incoherent I can understand anyone reading them failing to understand just how ill you really are." "Please keep posting more of your hilarious rantings.. "And luckily no innocent people will become victims of your butchery." "For those of you checking in, crying tears, ready to come to Rita's aid and march on wherever she wants you to march on..." "Holy Molys, this person can type, and type, and type "Here's a bit more folks, read and enjoy" "And for those of you out there who think 'oh, poor Rita' read the full report and post if you don't think she's a few fries short of a Happy Meal." "There is sooo much more" "It is SOOO scary that this woman every received a license to practice medicine." "Now they allegedly tried to kill you? Ha ha ha ha." "Rita is not the victim, she's the attacker." It's amazing how many 'REPORTS' this person has typed up. However for a coherent report call this up: Your jaw will drop." "Before you wonder what this poster is talking about, you might want to take a gander at the following:" "She's off her Medication again...Mainic Phase gone wild" "It's pretty funny watching a meltdown first hand." "They're not Afraid Just bored by your rants. As I'm sure every DATE YOU EVER HAD was. Might explain a lot." "The original fraud finally shows up. He must be jealous you are getting more attention than he is." "The question is what are you doing out of the psych ward and how did you gain access to a computer, then the internet. Someone is going to get fired for not supervising you as they should." "Still haven't found anyone to cave to your attempts at extortion yet eh?" "Why did you need to file another inane babble report?" "So reports can't be deleted here but posts can? That's pretty funny. And even funnier, now they allegedly tried to 'kill' you?" "They have already wasted enough of their time. Where have you benn these 17 years? A psych ward?" "Hi Friends. Reading this trying to figure things out....Well here's what my buddy John put together....Read the medical report first...then you'll get the REAL idea of what's going on her. And be glad when you're mom is sick and you get placed in the hospital, this person will not be 'assigned' to her. The Delta Report below will have you laughing in the street." "I realized Sunday morning that you are proven a liar every week on Discovery Channel." "It's just so silly you got to laugh. And then she spends time talking about broken bones in Lassie. (get it, a COLLIE'S FRACTURE...Look it up Colle's /Collies, it's a joke son get it?)" "'Oh look, Rita has a high TSH...no wonder she acted like such a dunce. Here, give her a license and Synthroid and she's good to go...'" "It's moronic knee jerk self righteous do gooders such as yourself(Andromeda) who can't see past the obvious who eliminate reasonable argument and discussion from these issues (darn, let me climb out of your gutter again)." "Giving this self centered, egotistical, vindicitive, psychopathic, lying, misrerpesenting, mentally unstable EX-physician a bullet and flames protected platform to throw down her vile hatred is not in ANYONEs best interest." "This was built with help of: JOHN Califon, New Jersey for anyone interested." ------------------------------ You two nut-jobs have NEVER been able to come up with ANY answer telling us WHY you appear to ENJOY attacking MENTALLY ILL PEOPLE, specifically Rita. ------------------------------ 3. Does the board need you to justify their decision for them? NO! 4. Does the public need to know how to justify the boards decision for them? NO! 5. Is the public in grave danger if they don't know how to justify the boards decision for them? NO 6. Is the public in grave danger if they don't have YOU to point out everything about Rita that justifies the boards decision FOR THEM? NO! 7. Do the writings of Rita need to be 'balanced', because everyone thinks she is telling the truth NO! 8. Do the other people Rita 'slandered' need these two nut-jobs to exonerate them because the board did not NO! ------------------------------ If you two nut-jobs HAD A SISTER OR ANY OTHER FAMILY MEMBER, who was mentally ill posting here, YOU WOULD 'RIP' HIM/HER TO SHREDS, is that right? If you WOULDN'T 'rip' a family member, then I see NO JUSTIFIABLE reason to 'rip' ANY OTHER mentally ill person to shreds either. DO YOU? If you two nut-jobs can not answer YES to 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 above, and you can't 'dream up' any other valid reasons, then there some OTHER motive. The only possibilities are that you two nut-jobs are mentally ill, or that you are receiving a lot of PLEASURE kicking someone who is down. What is it? I think we all kn! Don't look at your buddies for support. They tried, but had nothing to help you with. After all, they were never able to figure out that the problem has ALWAYS BEEN 'WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS', NOT 'Rita IS ILL', OR 'THE BOARD WAS WRONG'. In all fairness however, 'WHY' was only presented EVERY TIME I posted on these threads. ------------------------------ Let me ask about YOUR OWN statements from RipOffReport 384765: 'COULD YOU BE ONE OF CASE WESTERN'S BIGGEST MISTAKES?' 'IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE BIGGEST CASE WESTERN MEDICAL SCHOOL MISTAKE WAS YOU?' Since YOU wrote that Rita could be their 'BIGGEST' mistake, then where did the REST of their alleged(by you) mistakes go? Are they also practicing Medicine somewhere? Why don't you post THEIR information also? You need to be fair. You need to name and attack the other alleged(by you) 'mistakes' also, because you have only been harassing Rita so far! It looks to me like you very badly need to be sued! Anyone can look up the following: "LIBEL is the communication of a statement that makes a claim, expressly stated or IMPLIED to be factual, that may give an individual, business, product, group, government or nation a negative image. It is usually, but NOT ALWAYS,[1] a requirement that this claim be false and that the publication is communicated to someone OTHER THAN the person defamed (the claimant). I also think that relying on third party information(from the board) to make alleged(by you) 'factual' statements about someone else(Rita) is very risky at best. YOU MAY be liable YOURSELF for the TRUTH of the third party information(from the board) that YOU USED to discredit Rita. You have provided a mountain of statements to choose from. Good work! ------------------------------ Look at all your WRITTEN INSULTS above. You really need to "SHUT UP", GO AWAY". To quote you! "You are a few fries short of a happy meal"! All of the above is my own personal opinion only.

Dr. Sarr & Dr. Cortese need to apologize about the Mayo Clinic surgery where they cut all a woman physician's muscles off her abdominal wall and sew all the fascias together into one deormed lump not something that they could do to any guy patient

Dr. Sarr was told not to touch the muscles - to stop and workup whatever he felt the problem was, if it was beneath the abdominal muscles - which don't HEAL without losing strength and deformity after being cut. You want to wear clothing, avoid excessive surgerizing if the problem can be solved in a conservative way - Dr. Sarr hears none of this. Dr. Sarr's hands were too big, and his eyesight too poor, or he wanted to show the students/intern - so he cut all the abdominal muscles off the midline - three of them - for exhibit A. This is not a procedure that would be done to any Mayo Clinic attending's wife either - exhibit B. Thinking, studying the problem - this is what any surgeon is supposed to do since Dr. Stewart Halsted - know the WHY and WHEREFORE of any surgery, the options, and not to cut into anything without knowing the dimensions of the problem. And Dr. Sarr pretends that he trained at Johns Hopkins - he just learned memory rote surgery = ordering women to be put under anesthesia and cut up. Standard order sheets for Mayo Clinic - cut, rip, remove, and mutilate. First this wouldn't be done to a guy, and removing a normal nerve as a demonstration to a 4-month intern and a medical student who couldn't sew? Ouch! They were asked to not be in the room, or to watch. It was discussed at least 3 times that I was to be awake, until Dr. Sarr ordered the anesthesia without any consult pre-operatively in any normal way - so that my throat was sore from an experimental airway, and my lungs were full of Mayo Clinic crud - bronchitis that I had to self-treat. It was a guy wanting to show off like David Letterman on Late Night - another coddled male ego with all kinds of weird thoughts and ideas - another male MD exploitation of a female patient. Now all the muscles need to be repaired and all the fascia separated - and this should be at Mayo Clinic expense. You wouldn't do this to any male, any black, or any Jewish patient even - you would be accused of experimentation and ethics violations. My family and I await suggestions, names, and arrangements to undo every stitch of the Dr. Sarr neuroma procedure - knowing that the nerve can't be put back or healed at this point. In 1999, the Minnesota Medical Board debated stopping this procedure, having written consents for this procedure, or warning Dr. Sarr - they debated twice, but didn't have the guts to do SOMETHING - even written consents were too much for the Mayo Clinic or the MN Medical Board - which should reconsider this abusive, mutilating procedure that most articles paint as ill-advised and excessive. WHY? NO MALE GUTS in MN, just wimps? But the procedure should be stopped and rethought; it rips apart at the midline fascia level before 5 years causing even more pain and deformity - it's not a procedure that repairs anything. Dr. Sarr doesn't follow anything that he does, any procedure that he invents for the money. And anyone, including myself, who had this procedure forced on them, should be offered correction and repair. Dr. Cortese should know who can undo this Mayo Clinic abomination of surgery. Before he allows a procedure, Dr. Cortese should have all the stats on it, all the repair options, all the facts for at least 5 years of follow-up. But Cortese just hires MN law firms to do his dirty work = the money from those abusive procedures put to work at the Mayo Clinic Shop of Horrors.

Rita: Dr. Sarr saved my life. I don't know what your problem or beef is with him, but you must of had a bad experince. I am here to write about my experience. My stomach and small intestines fell apart after an ulcer surgery, from another doctor. I was on tube feeding for 6 months. When I went to Dr. Sarr for a second opinion, I was truly amazed at his work he has done. His interns were wonderful too.

Dr. Sarr will tear out your abdominal muscles without your consent - order anesthesia without your consent - and he can't stitch

#12Author of original report

You life will be a mess, your abdomen in pain, with no muscles for the rest of your life. You'll tell him do not touch the muscles - he'll cut them all for the students - and he can't stitch them back together - he'll remove normal nerves - he doesn't have time to do a workup. He's a monster, a Mengele, a mutilator and a liar.

#15Author of original report

This surgery is painful, unnecessary, and cruel. It was not agreed to - it was male prerogative. Staff of Mayo Clinic that participated - Dr. Baghai who had never examined me and didn't know the case, a student, an anesthesiologist that did a 'curbside consult' and told me he would 'watch me' (suffer), the nurses in the OR, etc need to get some help - this is not medical care. This wasn't the procedure that I needed or agreed to. Yes I wanted to know the source of pain - but to avoid surgery if I could - and Dr. Sarr knew that was an option but wanted money and to cut - salivating to rip someone apart. My family would have been happy to pay Dr. Sarr double for leaving me without surgery and a nerve block. The cutting of the muscles was absolutely Dr. Mengele.

Dr. Sarr does unnecessary surgeries on women - expediting OR times, no workup required, Mayo Clinic allows because of $

#17Author of original report

Mon, April 27, 2009

Dr. Sarr will see you and scedule you - saying he'll just do what's needed - he'll find a swelling and cut without knowing what it is - making a lifetime mess. The first of surgery is to 'know what you are cutting into,' to do the whole workup, and hold the surgery until the facts are known. Dr. Sarr is a 'butcher' in the Dr. Mengele tradition - experimenting with patients without patient consents - he pretends to agree. In my situation, he lied to another physician and her parents multiple times, there are 2 operative reports, and the 'help' was untrained and unknowledgeable - he's a scam artist and the Mayo Clinic loves him for the money. He doesn't follow any patient - he's a monster. Jill Beed and the Mayo administration allow him these 'special' surgery privileges - no working with other Mayo Clinic physicians - just cutting and butchering - he's not a good technical surgeon. You'll say 'No,' and he does it anyways - just a sick-person.

Minnesota Medical Board should have outlawed the Dr. Sarr procedure LONG before 1998 the cutting of every abdominal muscle and the lopping off of swollen inflamed 'normal' abdominal sensory nerves for student sport no guts, just wimps all.

#19Author of original report

Thu, March 26, 2009

In Minnesota they are back to HENRY VIIIth thought paradigms quarter the abdominal muscles and behead any abdominal sensory nerves that are 'troublesome' no irrigations, no nerve blocks, no discussion of the differential diagnosis which the aging Chief of Plastic Surgery didn't know either or bother with but then he sent a foreign resident/fellow plastics person in to play' and refer to Sarr the person' had no idea what he was doing in any way, medical or otherwise. The Mayo Clinic house of fools, surgical blunders, and women patient mutilations. Does anyone at the Medical Board, or Jill Beed Esq, realize what Dr. Sarr does in his abdominal exploration' procedure without any scans? The last Ultrasound had been done in NYC 2 years previously = real up-to-date VIRTUAL workup? The Mayo Clinic has more scans and ability to do percutaneous whatever, than any other hospital facility in the US, so they do things the cut-up and sew everything together way' mutilate the woman physician for show in front of students/residents/nurses in the OR. It was a public display of incompetence. There was no need to open up the entire incision especially without calling Dr. Stellato - except to let Dr. Baghai mutilate another woman MD for experience she couldn't get her own cases or ask the patient herself what kind of women physicians/surgeons are you training at Mayo Clinic? the helpless, clueless kind without a qualm of conscience?And long ago in surgical residency training, Dr. Stellato of University Hospitals of Cleveland should have learned that after he goes into an incision, he's responsible for the nerves that get inflammed. But Dr. Stellato wants to be Chief of EVERYTHING without some ACCOUNTABILITY - bad word in Ohio - but that's been the problem for 30 years now at University Hospitals of Cleveland. Dr. Stellato is not the only male in constant flight, just one of the best at the game of instantly losing any reponsibility for anything. What were the nurses?, RNs hopefully, in the OR thinking? about what Dr. Sarr was doing to another woman? mutilating her muscles without a thought as to how she would ever exercise them again or wear a bathing suit? and you all looked the other way for his mutilations that day no other terms for it in civilized society. The sewing up was like a fifth grader - the black student who smelled and had no hands and Dr. Sarr knew that this student HAD NO HANDS - knew that he didn't belong in the OR until he practiced his surgical technique in some lab - for a LONG TIME. But black students don't have to practice, they just mutilate because they are beyond practicing manual skills - it would be prejudice to say anything. Dr. Sarr can't even re-connect the right' fascia with the right' muscle and he's still got a license to continue doing this insanity in MN the ol' boy place for the cut-ups. With students/residents who don't know the case? With an anesthesiologist who gets to give the consent himself for a patient men get to date rape drug' out women for surgery in Minnesota, when they've said No' three times at least to the procedure that Dr. Sarr just wants' to do procedures for Mayo Clinic studies and building monies. My airway was part of some study that I wasn't allowed to consent to - just shoved in my throat when I told Dr. Sarr 'No' to that option, ie no airway experimental or proven. Dr. Sarr, like most men, thinks you really mean 'YES.' Just BEHEAD the normal abdominal nerves and send to the pathology morgue waste file. BONES & NCIS shows on the primetime networks do more scans on dead' bodies than Dr. Sarr does on living ones. What did Dr. Sarr think that he would feel if this procedure was done on his daughter my parent's question to him - and it was no emergency and no necessity the nerve could have healed with a nerve block, any foreign material' should/could have just been removed or irrigated out. Can't Dr. Sarr use sterile water instead of scalpels all the time? Dr. Baghai was told that she could WATCH as Dr. Sarr hadn't done the scans for cutting into muscles? The procedure should have been guillotined long ago before the 1990s - before what happened to me - which is Medical Board negligence = let the powerful surgeons rip up women physicians for an afternoon's sport - it wasn't for any health of mind and body. The first law of surgery is supposed to be TO DO NO HARM; not to cut into muscles when you don't know what the swelling is (SURGEON'S FIRST LAW), and see if it can heal on its own with the right care,' not to mutilate tissues or remove nerves that might be able to function again if treated decently but women patients, and their nerves, aren't ever treated with respect, decency or thought - especially at Mayo Clinic - the home of the anabolic hormone testosterone - which increases protein synthesis everywhere BUT THE BRAIN. Women patients get these inflamed nerves in old incisions more than the men - because the men are so sloppy, so rough, so cut and rip with delicate women's bodies - you should know that Dr. Stellato and Dr. Jerry Shuck at UH should have known it. Even Dr. Ponsky, who pontificates at seminar after CME seminar, has yet to set the rules at UH about nerve inflammations in old surgical incisions - is Dr. Stellato responsible or accountable or can he just TERMINATE/TURF? How to manage inflamed abdominal nerves in old incisions - a very common problem - is never discussed from the Chief to the intern in any surgical program; it's assumed you just 'cut it out' or don't admit the problem. 'When in doubt, cut it out' goes the pearl that isn't any surgical 'pearl.' How did Dr. Sarr think that I would heal from this cut-it-out surgery? it hasn't healed yet and fascia healing is VERY painful contrary to what the men surgeons think - it HURTS where Dr. SARR CUTS - because he's not careful, has big hands, and little insight or vision - and he cuts where he's not supposed to be cutting. The Mayo Men just do this cutting on women patients because they can; there is no other medical/surgical reason that Jill Beed has been able to explain or put forth in 10 years. Dr. Sarr was supposed to STOP when he found the swelling in the muscle lawyers until he got the scans, which could have been done intra-operatively at Mayo Clinic that day (good teaching), that showed what he was dealing with, cutting into, and in what layer it was - it's not a game of keep cutting until you find something that impresses the resident & students - who were not supposed to be in the room = voyeuristic perverts all who couldn't find something 'better' to do. To allow medical students to force themselves on patients to try to get 'Honors' is not teaching or rewarding the 'right' behaviors - differential diagnosis 'zebras,' that save a patient a procedure, should be honored with HONORS. Even the surgical flow charts go through these paradigms to prevent harm, disasters, unnecessary patient morbidity. But Dr. Sarr has to do the Dr. Sarr procedure - not on any flow chart that I've seen. This was a procedure that Dr. Sarr would never get away with doing on ANY male MD he'd be banned from the OR for life. It's like CASTRATION to cut into a guys 6-packs - so Dr. Sarr practices on Catholic girls, like Henry VIIIth. But probably the discussions and banter in the OR that day were not as antiseptic' as they were supposed to be, and this was distracting from any procedural thought not a neuron was engaged that day. Surgeons should be able to make a NO HARM plan when they encounter an unanticipated finding deep in the muscle layers = a thinking plan not a hormonal erectile tissue plan. The State Medical Board of MN needs to step up to the plate,' and ban some of the Dr. Sarr obsolete procedures from ever being done again Mayo Clinic notwithstanding. They need to require that Dr. Sarr obtain WRITTEN surgical consents with all the possibilities/options discussed in writing so that patients stop waking up with the 'medical student surprise' that they didn't know was on the menu. Women physicians shouldn't be put through these tortures expecting that they won't say anything, just because they can be threatened with loss of everything medical. That's why Dr. Sarr TRIED THIS, because it would be deemed UNPROFESSIONAL if I complained - hardly a good justification for surgical mutilation, i.e. try it on those who can't object in time. The MN Medical Board also needs to require that Mayo Clinic pay for the reconstructions of ALL these abdominal quarterings with nervectomies you can do the same thing by percutaneous neurotomy = radio frequency ablation Dr. Sarr just a sterile' frequency thought. Did the MN Medical Board THINK of this when they voted twice to take no immediate action to prevent more Dr. Sarr procedures? There was no need to cut up that incision, or the muscles, except for a power thing' just like Henry VIIIth. And as far any self-respecting law firm - that would object to my objections as defaming Dr. Sarr's 'character' you all need the Dr. Sarr procedure and a few abdominal nervectomies the long way -- you have a missing ethical 'screw.' Dr. Sarr really does have a missing 'sensitivity' chip. The Mayo Clinic should have STANDING house' rules in the St. Mary's OR - that stop surgical procedures right away' when something is found that hasn't been worked up anesthesia should have said something even before Dr. Sarr irrevocably cuts it out. This nerve and abdominal muscle procedure was never agreed to - did anyone LISTEN? This case, two operative reports down so far, represents surgical intern mistakes not Chief of General Surgery at Mayo Clinic anything unless that's a position filled by a popular student vote for playing with the boys Dr. Sarr was playing around when I first when in the room touch this, touch that for the guys. MN MDs need some medical, or surgical, maturity or to lose some privileges. FIRST DO NO HARM RULES GUYS.

It is my and my parent's wishes, that your surgery - every stitch - be UNDONE. You mutilated someone else's child, for money, for demo, for ego. And lied about everything even the closure - I wasn't worth ONE TRUTH. Mayo Clinic Rochester, or your law firms, is asked to provide an accurate account of what was cut and sutured to what, what was torn, what was ripped, and WHO ie what surgeon male or female in the United States knows how to undo this mutilation - to put the right muscles with the right fascias - someone who has hands and sight. Someone who can reconnect and relengthen take out all the student scar tissue. Women MDs are just abuse for your medical students, residents and staff.

Short-sheeting of abdominal muscles

#21Author of original report

Sun, March 22, 2009

Dr. Sarr will shortsheet abdominal muscles in women in his procedure. You ask him to remove scar tissue and he creates scar tissue for a lifetime with bungling hands and horrible help. He cuts every abdominal muscle and then sews some of them together - in effect shortsheeting them until you can get a surgeon(?) to undo this butchery and sew the muscles and fascia back that belong together - lengthening the muscles back to normal. Muscle tension and strengh depends on muscle length -some of which is the fascia. Dr. Sarr has no biomedical training. The Mayo Clinic won't tell you who can undo Dr. Sarr. But his short-sheeting of abdominal muscles in women patients, without their consent to this abdominal Dr. Love procedure, needs to stop. All women that this has been done to need to be offered reconstruction Jill Beed.

Maybe someone in the US knows how to repaire Dr. Sarr's butchery; the surgery without any scans or workup

#23Author of original report

Dr. Sarr goes after women patients carving you like a turkey, one muscle at a time, to unearth a swollen nerve that he should have studied with an MRI, nerve block, or endoscopic procedure - that's why I came to Mayo Clinic. The conditions were that he only go to the muscle layers, just the subcutaneous scarring, and that a plastic surgeon, not he latest black student with no hands, stinking of some godawful perfume, do the closure. He nodded and then just ripped me apart for $800? My parents and I remain in shock at the butchery - it was like Hitler's procedures - only Jill Beed allows this because she doesn't understand what Dr. Sarr does. If anyone knows a good general surgeon who can repair muscles and fascia from abuse - please let me know - that's why I recontacted you Ms. Beed. You should know who repairs Dr. Sarrs insanities - he doesn't know any surgery. The FIRST RULE OF SURGERY is that you don't go in an incision without a plan - it may be an exploration and biopsy, but you study each layer before you do this - why I couldn't believe the cutting of three muscles. The scans are much more than $800 for your budget. Any patient who goes near the Mayo Clinic will lose all their abdominal muscle tone - you won't have those six-packs - Dr. Sarr is an awful surgeon, a total liar (2 operative reports worth), and a sleaze beyond all sleazes. That's the Mayo Clinic - they can't even do a set of thyroid function tests before they cut three fascias of normal muscles. And the nerve was inflammed after Dr. Thomas Stellato - they guys are rough and nerves can't take it. Do any of you have a neuron even?

I'm with Stacey, Mark & the anonymous "interested party". This is ridiculous!! I've been to Mayo - I traveled several hours away for my appointments with Dr. Sarr & other Doctors at Mayo. I have since consulted with Dr. Sarr about other concerns and have never been treated with anything but his utmost courtesy, professionalism, an unbelievable attention to detail. He has always been tremendously encouraging & helpful. I was stunned at how thoroughly I was evaluated & tested during my consultations at Mayo - my doctors at home could use a lesson as to how to treat their patients!! He was on time for everything, he explained absolutely everything that was going to happen, and explained the results of all the tests thorougly and clearly. I Honestly felt as though I was the only patient he had to see those days (despite his tremendously full schedule) he took that much time with me to answer every single question & concern I had. From the research I had done on Dr. Sarr prior to traveling to Mayo for my consultation with him, I learned that he is recognized as an expert in his field. Mayo has always been known to be the BEST of the BEST and to my knowledge does not have doctors on staff who fail to meet that criteria and reputation. Seems to me that Rita is just looking for someone to blame ... my god ... she's been at this for months from what I can see. Dr. Sarr is amazing ... I would drive 11 hrs again in a heartbeat to be treated by him if my insurance would cover the out of state surgery I require. As recently as today he offered a suggestion & referral to a doctor closer to me who may be more readily covered by my insurance plan. I do not see where such behaviour could be construed as arrogant. I would pray that the "victim" Rita learn to take personal responsibility for her own actions & decisions. Talk about defamation of character ... seems that she has more than excessively slandered the doctors & Mayo. I agree ... enough is enough!

Dr. Michael Sarr can't tell a 'normal' nerve from a neuroma and he will rip apart a whole abdominal wall for money rather than do a careful workup and differential diagnosis as Jill Beed will defend him to the death of the patient. . .

#26Author of original report

Mon, January 19, 2009

Dr. Sarr does neuroma surgeries, without any neuroma, cutting every abdominal muscle when you've said 'No' to denervation, muscle dissection - anything but a LOCAL 'look' to find the site of the pain and mark it for scans, study, and options. And I said 'NO' three times, but the last time he had me in a room alone so that no one would see or document. Never get in a room alone with Dr. Sarr, and then walk away - it means trouble and a procedure that you've given no consent to - and nothing is 'informed' at Mayo Clinic; it's all for the building funds. This second or third 'look' was supposed to be done by Dr. Sarr ALONE, and would have taken 5 minutes of his surgical time = 5 minutes he coudln't give another MD. This is probably less than he spent in the room while I was being butchered by Dr. Baghai and an unnamed black student with no hands for surgery (no gift, just EOE). It is estimated that > 50 % of abdominal wall nerve pains improve with simple injections = too simple for the Mayo Clinic, Dr. Cortese, and Dr. Sarr. It's all about money and being a 'demo' for students/residents who shouldn't be operating on dogs in the dog lab = cruelty to animals. Until Dr. Sarr can tell the difference between a normal and an inflammed nerve he should limit his surgeries to monkeys - who don't complain or need to wear clothing. He should try doing this on his wife and daughter, or Dr. Cortese's secretaries - then there would be some changes and some restriction of this faulty, barbaric and not successful procedure, and his faulty thinking. It leaves every muscle in pain whereas before you just had one 'point' tenderness. All that I needed was an injection, some scans and a nerve block, but Dr. Sarr can't tell you that as he wants the 'big money.' Totally corrupt, sadistic, and cruel man who disfigures women colleagues for the money.

Dr. Sarr is Chief of General Surgery at Mayo Clinic and doesn't know how to evaluate abdominal wall pain to avoid UNNECESSARY SURGERY

#27Author of original report

Mon, January 19, 2009

The management of abdominal wall pain is a common problem in surgical clinics - and should have a PARADIGM at Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN for management. Carnett described his test in 1926 - yet Chiefs of General Surgery can't do it or inject a pain trigger point with simple lidocain and hydrocortisone. Dr. Stellato at University Hospitals in Cleveland couldn't do it, and Dr. Michael Sarr at Mayo could both only offer re-exploration. But Dr. Sarr took it one further, mutilating muscles, fascia and removing a normal nerve that should have been treated with injection, rest, and observation. The re-operation of woman patients for trivial, or money, reasons is not good Women's Medicine.

The problem was that I didn't agree to a DENERVATION PROCEDURE, or muscle wall dissection, just a quick look to localize the site of problem and mark it for study or injection, remove any suture material.

#28Author of original report

Mon, January 19, 2009

Abdominal wall neuromas are a painful problem post-surgeries. But as a physician I did not agree to a dissection of my abdominal wall or denervation - which often causes more problems - just some diagnosis, nerve block, or injection. Dr. Sarr does nothing to diagnose or localize abdominal wall pain - no scans, no injections, no Carnett's test. He just goes in and keeps cutting. Dr. Sarr doesn't listen and is so surgically poor that he can't sew the fascia back that he cut - Mayo Clinic needs to give me a name of a surgeon who can do this on small people - who doesn't butcher. There are many flow-diagrams for the evaluation and treatment of abdominal wall pain, but Dr. Michael Sarr doesn't follow any of them. The tender spot should first be injected with lidocaine and hydrocortisone and he didn't give me this chance, he didn't even localize or mark the area of tenderness = he just cut, ripped, and mutilated. The most discussion that I had with him was which resident should do the procedure and I wasn't at Mayo Clinic for a resident or a removal of an abdominal wall nerve. The Mayo Clinic needs to get back who can repair this mutilation. All that was needed was some pain relief or amelioration and cleaning out of the scar tissue - not the cutting of muscles and sewing together because Dr. Sarr was in-between speaking engagements for the American College of Surgeons. 56% of patients are pain-improved after local treatment - all he had to do was inject intra-operatively. There was no need to denervate a NORMAL NERVE with no preamble. This is Mayo Clinic BUTCHERY for money. The nerve was just inflammed, irritated and needed anesthesia and nerve block. A response from Mayo Clinic is needed.

Patients should be advised that when Dr. Michael Sarr goofs on you and he will you will be unable to seek any other consultation or care at Mayo Clinic EVER AGAIN.

Tue, December 30, 2008

The rest of your life will be forfeit for one big cover-up for the Chief of Surgery to keep his pension while you won't have the health for yours with a 10 year surgical recovery for his muscle destruction and cutting. What he does doesn't heal and you will never find out if anyone else ever got this surgery that you didn't agree to in the first place. Your parents will just cry with the mutilation of his 'one-of-a kind' surgery - parents try to keep you intact until you marry or find a partner - Dr. Sarr mutilates in a scary way. And Dr. Sarr won't consult with other surgeons before scheduling you for surgery' tomorrow' to fill a suddenly open' slot in his schedule = some other patient got wise' fast. Womanly wiles won't prevent this - he has no compassion. Patients are advised to steer clear of being re-routed' to see Dr. Michael Sarr who can't do an abdominal exam, differential diagnosis, order a scan, or complete a workup to prevent an unnecessary surgery. Other Mayo surgeons will re-route' when they just don't know' or want to spend the time on your case. Another surgeon will have a cursory resident look,' and then re-route. Dr. Sarr is the butcher that ends all hope.' Dr. Sarr will take you to surgery without one scan and with a clearance' from his special' gal foreign MD. His diagnoses are made after extensive cadaveric OR dissections, not pre-op, and with the worst intern and student help (coming from God-only-knows-where and you won't be able to get even a name of who groped your poor body against your consent as you will have been OR-raped with an anesthesia that you didn't agree to). Dr. Sarr will do all this to find what he can learn' from your case. He will rip you apart in a painful, disabling, mutilating un-repairable way typical of an older training in surgery with no muscles left untouched or in situ - surgery by killing the patient. Dr. Sarr is paternalistic, won't listen to your symptoms or history, and spends most of his time with you trying to get you scheduled with a resident who doesn't know the case. Dr. Sarr won't mark the side or area of pain or problem - he just takes everything apart. Dr. Sarr has NO COMMON SENSE or ability to stop a surgery when he's made the wrong decision about going in.' There are apparently no mistake controls at Mayo Clinic Rochester. He doesn't stop to workup the swelling under the muscle - and if it was cancer he would have just spread the tumor - he doesn't CARE. Dr. Sarr can't close and do the workup, or rethink the problem before rushing in to do more harm with the immaturity of a 1st year medical student = the guys who he hangs with. Then Dr. Sarr won't admit his mistake, so he just doesn't schedule any post-op appointments. He brutally disfigures, butchers, and destroys abdominal walls leaving parents in utter disbelief, tears, and horror. Then with no post-op, there's no picture and the resident never sees what he/she did their future is secure to butcher again - no stats on his cases, no more information available on how many other cases like yours and who 'fixed' things. You can't get or find the name of the surgeon who can re-do, take down, or undo. And the State Medical Board of MN won't go after a case where the result was never followed, where two operative reports counfound - and the 'truth' isn't on either report, it's somewhere 'lost in the conspiracy of silence.' Dr. Michael Sarr is a cruel, arrogant, self-serving surgical decision maker, and bad surgeon - who doesn't know when to stop a case and do the workup; and he can't stitch, cut or gently retract tissues (big hands, thick glasses, bigger ego and residents who don't do suture clinics). Dr. Sarr has to cut things apart and destroy natural anatomy beyond recognition or repair, beyond significant others helping you. Schedule your post-op visits before the surgery, but don't be surprised when they are cancelled and you are told to write him a note how you are doing' to prevent Jill Beed and Dr. Cortese from seeing the mess and the horror; to contain. Those notes are 'round-filed.' Dr. Sarr doesn't care you are just a surgical statistic that didn't work as he didn't spend 5 minutes thinking' about the case. He's a cut and show me the money' guy highest surgical reimbursement businessman. And he regularly will SUPERSIZE the procedure to something that you never agreed to or that was never discussed - that's 'fair' to him. He knocks you out' with anesthesia that you never agreed to, a never-saw-the-anesthesia-guy for a consult situation, and then uses experimental airways, excessive anesthesia and you never had thyroid function tested and were there for a familial thyroid problem workup. Anesthesia works with him in this 'game' plan - and no woman is sacred from this abuse. The prettier, more professional - the more mutilation from the guys and gang. He will wreck anyone but his daughter and wife. No medical problem is a contraindication to his groupie' approach he can't do a surgery alone for 5 minutes - and it's always that 'we' have to do this big plan and get this person back to what? when 'we' won't ever see the patient back. Lastly he misleads the whole team' as to why you are there and what is the 'plan' there are/will be several versions of the OR report - and it's all a 'joke' for the Medical Board of MN. Then Jill Beed and Dr. Michael Sarr will go after your father and threaten his job, have a law firm contact you about defamation of his supposed character' and Dr. Sarr has no character,' ability to make a good surgical decision, gentleness with tissue. The results speak for themselves. Your surgery, and your emotional disbelief, will not heal for years. And you'll have something that needed a 'nerve block' or minor out-patient procedure - no cutting. But after Dr. Sarr you will need a lifetime of revisions. Dr. Sarr is a jerk, a con-artist, and a cruel physician who serves only himself and his image of Mayo Clinic - a meat factory money-machine.

#34Author of original report

Sat, December 27, 2008

The problem is that I did not CONSENT (ie informed surgical written or verbal consent) to Dr. Sarr's super-sizing of the procedure - just that he clean out the scar tissue about the muscle and make further recommendations - 'second look' with me awake. Simple, clear, straight-forward. The muscles were not to be touched before further workup and ALL THE OPTIONS = my words exactly. And I don't think that this is the forum for this discussion, but Dr. Sarr has forced that - like he forced a procedure, intern, and black student with no ability on me - because he wanted to and could (if he drugged me out like date rape). Just male prerogative - saying 'No' means that you asked for it. And boy did I 'get it.' The male mutilation. All black medical students have come through, with different standards applied than white students, since my days in the 1970s. They don't have to go to suture workshops or practice - they just have a 'right' to disfigure white women - and they force it when they can or want to, ie if you don't let them in the room it is 'prejudice.' Any I had a 'right' to know something about the experience, or even names, of the help in the OR - where they came from at least ie Mayo Clinic or the African subcontinent - did they speak English? And I had a 'right' to restrict my case from unnecessary 'help' or male student viewing/sexual gapping. There are awful comments about women patients during surgeries - about their bodies, etc.- and the students that I saw looked arrogant (like Dr. Sarr) and callous (like Dr. Sarr). And when I did the outpatient visit with Dr. Sarr, there was lots of guy joking around going on - had to get them out of the room - just boy stuff. But re black students, some are good, some are horrible - what Dr. Sarr dragged in was a NIGHTMARE of incompetence and appearance/smell. A goon with hands to run from. And he had no name or ability to ask if he could participate - just no ability at all = a nightmare for my parents that I came to such incompetence, abuse, and medical 'help.' A bumbling, incoherent student with no hands' for the job as the expression goes. There was no consent to the anesthesia and I didn't see the anesthesiology people the night before ON PURPOSE - I was alone and asked TO BE AWAKE so that I could ask anyone not belonging in the OR TO LEAVE, ie Dr. Baghia and the student with a cologne problem = distracting. Dr. Baghai forced herself on me against my consent - 3 times I told Dr. Sarr 'NO' regarding her doing anything but WATCHING - as I didn't KNOW her and she was a several month 'wonder.' Dr. Sarr seemed to agree to those conditions and then forced his 'ideas' of what he thought should be done on me as he would an incompetent patient. Dr. Sarr knew that even if the medical insurance wouldn't pay for not doing anything 'major' - that as a physician I would guarantee the Mayo Clinic costs - Dr. Sarr did not have to fit any DRG or code if that turned out not to work, ie if it was just an 'exploration.' This was discussed repetitively the day before. Just for him to do ONLY WHAT HE HAD DO, nothing more, no super-sizing of codes - we could have GIFTED the MAYO CLINIC extensively for all the legal monies and pain. If Dr. Sarr found anything, the 'swelling,' he was to close and allow a workup and consideration of all options - not proceed to cut up every abdominal muscle with my parents in Ohio. This is the old style of patriarchal medicine - where the woman physician-patient has to take the onslaught, ABUSE, and MUTILATION without a whimpering noise. Dr. Sarr ADMITTED to me the day before that he hadn't done the scans that he needed to do any extensive surgery - so I thought that I was 'safe.' Any extensive procedure would need to be done in Ohio, at home, where my parents and family could assist in healing - but DR. SARR wanted to 'steal' that option. Dr. Sarr didn't have the information to cut 3 muscles and most surgeons would have spread the muscles - but his hands were apparently too big for my body - so everything was painfully CUT. And I MEAN PAINFULLY. No other surgeon that I know would have done what he did to anyone, let alone a physician patient. No guy would allow this mutilation to be done to HIS muscles. And to my knowledge I'm the only patient with this procedure = case series of one. All I have to do with any jury is show them the scars - which even after extensive plastic surgery - are horrible - the muscle puckering and disfigurement. Dr. Sarr can't stitch muscles back to their fascia = that's a painful procedure also = but he can't put together what he cut apart. The mere description of the Dr. Sarr procedure would horrify any general jury. Most physicians reading what Dr. Sarr did to me are upset that he went to these extremes with NO WORKUP, my parents were upset. Jill Beed keeps calling that she can persuade my father that this was ok - he listens but has bought her explanations or excuses - but she keeps trying. Dr. Sarr lied outright to my physician father. And The Mayo Clinic has every scan on the planet. No one understands what 'happened' here - least of all me. Dr. Sarr was asked NOT to bring in Dr. Baghai to do anything, because working together WITH ME, he needed to localize the problem - where the pain was - FIRST. Dr. Baghai did not know ANYTHING about the case - she was practicing on me - she didn't even introduce herself by name - just said 'Hi' two minutes before I was drugged - so that I couldn't stop her - and I have NIGHTMARES of this. Where I'm awake unable to stop the cutting. I wake up screaming 'HELP' - for years now. The pain area was unmarked with any surgical marker - the standard of care anywhere else. This was just a 'fishing' expedition; cut, rip, and glue everything back to each other. I'm coming from a state where it is illegal to FORCE residents, interns, or medical students on patients or physician-patients. And no attending, except Dr. Sarr, has refused my request that the students/residents/interns be excluded from the room and that the attending DO THE CASE - every stitch - under local. There have been several 'clean out' old suture procedures = all under local where I hold perfectly still and am awake. And I expected Dr. Sarr to allow that or let me get the procedure done in a state where the attending would do all the procedure and not put me under an UNNECESSARY anesthesia (was at Mayo for workup of a thyroid bone problem and probably hypothyroid at the time) - which I had refused - so that I wouldn't SEE Dr. Baghia and the black monster (how he is in my nightmare) rip me apart literally - READ THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCEDURE AND IT IS SCARY. No mention of a SCAN so that Dr. Sarr knows what he is cutting into - or the localization. So I agreed only to a local second look, and I'm coming from the University Hospitals of Cleveland system where informed consents (WRITTEN) are the rule, and where interns/students can't be FORCED on a patient for learning or 'practice' without knowing anything about the case. The MAYO CLINIC needs some reforms in procedure, and they should have occurred long before 1998. Regarding the muscles - and the mess - I need a recommendation of a surgeon with MORE ABILITY THAN DR. SARR - who can reattach each muscle to their individual fascia = something that I could do with my small hands when I did a year of general surgery training. And I was a one year intern at the time. Cutting everything up and sewing everything back together is adolescent = not taking responsibility and not putting things back anatomically never works. Dr. Sarr knew that he goofed; why there was no post-op visit = he knew that he went too far when he was speaking to me afterwards. And he left the room very quickly AFTER RELEASING ME - signing to dump me on Main Street to find my own way home. The procedure he did should only have been done if there was a family member present to help me - BUT DR. SARR HAS NO COMMON OR UNCOMMON SENSE. Most of this is understandable to everyone BUT Dr. Sarr and Jill Beed. This kind of horrible 'care' should not be going on anywhere, least of all MAYO CLINIC. But Dr. Sarr was in between 'flights out;' he had to do my procedure without the workup to catch his next plane = what Jill Beed allows and should have stopped long ago; shouldn't have come to Frederikson & Byron - spending money unnecessarily to defend bad surgical practices AND MUTILATIONS OF WOMEN PATIENTS = NAKED AND MUTILATED IS THE RULE AT MAYO CLINIC. It was beyond my worst nightmare to think that someone at Mayo Clinic - and I know how Andy Oldenburg MD operates - went to medical school with him - and he would have never thought that this would have happened and played out as it did. Expected that all Mayo surgeons had some similarity of approaches and behaviors - some professionalism - not drug a girl and force yourself on her. Start a fight = the guy thing to do.

The Mayo Clinic needs to investigate the legitimacy of the Dr. Sarr muscle cutting procedures - Dr. Sarr was refused to cut into muscles without scans & workup

#36Author of original report

Tue, December 23, 2008

The Mayo Clinic, and the Minnesota State Medical Board, need to investigate the legitimacy of these 'neuroma' abdominal surgical fishing procedures. They are dangerous without any workup, or trial of nerve block, and a second opinion. The student/intern were refused because I can't check on their credentials and the Mayo Clinic has a lot of foreign MD 'help' assisting - ? the cologne saturated black student that Dr. Sarr allowed in against my consent - who couldn't close. Dr. Baghai could not cut, but she tried and that was unnecessary mutilation. Who was cutting the muscles. Dr. Baghia shouldn't have been anywhere near a physician-patient at 4 months into her surgical residency. The procedure is deforming, mutilating, and in my case removed a 'normal' nerve that was just inflammed - I needed a nerve block which was not one of Dr. Sarr's options. Why? as it would have been big money for Mayo Clinic and the building fund. Then 3 muscles (super-sizing a local procedure?) were cut and sewn to 2 fascia - too big hands, vision problems? The first operative report put the suture that I was allergic to back in the incision. Why wasn't Board Certified surgical help called into the OR to sew each fascia to each muscle? But the point is that I refused this 3x saying that if Dr. Sarr found something in the muscle, he had to work it up and present me with the OPTIONS before cutting anything, ie close and do the workup. Dr. Sarr moved this procedure up to accomodate his travel schedule - which should never be allowed. I came for ovarian problems - needed a scan anyways - which didn't get done - the conversation never got to a medical history. My parents weren't initially called, or there, becuause this was agreed to be a local procedure. The refusals were done in front of a nurse, and then I was taken into a room with just Dr. Sarr - which I should have refused. The clearance was a special clearance woman of Dr. Sarr's choosing - not the normal Mayo Clinic route. Jill Beed I have a mess which will take several surgical procedures to correct. There was no excuse for ANY of this with a physician-patient. I didn't agree to ANY CUTTING OF ANY MUSCLES OR FASCIA, or ANY AIRWAY, or ANY ANESTHESIA. 'Watching' me was ok, but that wasn't what happened 20 minutes before the procedure. So you get a girl in and cut all her abdominal muscles, sew 3 back to 2 fascia, and destroy any chance of me wearing decent clothing for the rest of my life? Why? Minnesota Medical Board needs to mandate surgical consent forms at Mayo Clinic - where the procedure is in writing and patient signs with a witness, and not at the last minute with no clothing, no glasses and no relatives.

#42Author of original report

Dr. Sarr needs to explain why he would do a procedure that a physician-patient said 'No' to - at Mayo Clinic - where he cut 3 muscles and sutured 2 together removing a 'normal' nerve as he didn't do the workup. No scans, nothing, just a foreign MD doing a rubber-stamp workup in-between her taking care of herself. Dr. Sarr was doing the procedure flying in and out of Rochester for 'big deal' speaking etc events, so he pushed the surgery schedule and cut the workup or consultations. Dr. Cortese allows this abuse apparently = anything for money. There was no consent, no need, and no sense to what happened. There was an unnecessary anesthesia that was said 'No' to. What can be done and why? This is not my character problem - that procedure should be outlawed. The Medical Board should have sanctioned Dr. Sarr that he not do 'experimental' procedures that he had no consent to, no sense to, and no reason for. All monies need to be returned to Medical Mutual of Ohio, this was harmful fraud.

Dr. Sarr sutured two muscles, of different directions of action, together - which doesn't work - without a physician patient's consent

#44Author of original report

Thu, December 18, 2008

Dr. Sarr sutured two abdominal muscles together - which work in different directions of action and had no consent to do this. My father physician was available to call, other physicians were available in the area to consult with. This was the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. There was no consent given to go into ANY MUSCLES OR FASCIA without a workup. Why do it? So he felt 'something,' that doesn't mean you dig it out without knowing what it is or studying the problem. Ultrasound didn't show anything IN ANOTHER HOSPITAL SYSTEM. But that doesn't mean you take down every muscle and suture two together - which doesn't make anything move correctly. Then Dr. Sarr hides behind Jill Beed, and won't see the incision back, and lies about the closure. Someone has the ability to repair this in the US. You owe me that information. The Mayo Clinic, the Mayo Board of Trustees and the Minnesota Medical Board need to put a stop to this particular procedure, other procedures without workup or patient discussion, and allow binding patient consent procedures.

Defamation of character . . . the Mayo Clinic won't limit Dr. Michael Sarr to the procedure that was agreed to and he can't sew the appropriate muscles to their individual fascias that he cut on a procedure that the patient didn't agree to.

#45Author of original report

Thu, December 18, 2008

Defamation of character? - would be a defamation of my character that I agreed to a procedure that Dr. Sarr would then do without my consent, discussion, or the workup needed = a one-of-a-kind procedure for money. A procedure that NO OTHER SURGEON understands why he did, or can explain, or can undo. Dr. Sarr was doing this in between plane tickets out; a TWA-surgeon of the old kind - but the butchery? Then Dr. Baghia, and the smelly medical student, both with no talent, knowledge of the case, or my permission to be there? Find a cyborg patient, rip a foreign patient apart with foreign MD 'help,' rip a black patient apart with a black student from God-only-knows where. It's a defamation of my character that I would agree to Dr. Sarr doing a 'spur of the moment' dissection for demonstration & teaching - I wasn't a cadaver - rather a human being who needed to wear clothing. Informed patient consent is not allowed or respected at Mayo Clinic - even for physician-patients Mayo Board of Trustees & Jill Beed are at fault there. The Medical Board of MN discussed this twice, but was deadlocked what to do, ie would not recommend that Dr. Sarr be required to obtain patient consent before proceeding with a non-emergent surgery. So more patients at Mayo Clinic St. Mary's wake up with procedures that they never imagined? That the Medical Board if MB had discuss this case at all was statement enough that something was wrong at Mayo Clinic procedurally. Even after the procedure, Dr. Sarr lies about what he did and why to your face and your parents on the phone - to the other Mayo Clinic staff. And Jill Beed and Patient Services think is a joke - that Dr. Sarr just changes his story as needed. That's the problem - the different versions of the story. There are no less than TWO operative reports that exist - one better than the other - but both leaving something out - like recipes with missing ingredients. What happened? And what Chief of General Surgery can cut 3 muscle fascias, and not sew three muscles back to their respective fascias (just anatomy 101 Dr. Sarr) and the muscles & fascia were big enough to cut and shred? This is just sewing - Home Economics 101. Was the transversus fascia damaged from Dr. Baghai, and the bulky goon with no ability to ask if he could 'come in'? Black medical students don't have to ask the patient anymore, just rape them, ie hands all over where I refused him (and you) to touch as I was alone, ie the muscles? Do you just carve women up like turkeys at Thanksgiving - no thought that they have to heal or are loved by someone who doesn't want to see the Dr. Sarr mess? But too thick glasses, too clumsy hands, too inept help? Bringing in the unshowered black medical student to force his inept work on me? That's the ultimate defamation that I have any worth at all - disfigurement of my body for no purpose or clear reason - harm but no patient good? It took the plastic surgeon over an hour to salvage just THAT PART of the procedure, and why would I agree to 3 muscles being cut without a workup, scans and trial of a nerve block if that was what the problem was? Why Dr. Sarr? Mayo Clinic has every scan on the planet. This was the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. And no 4-month intern is suitable help for that kind of procedure, ie Dr. Baghia. Mayo Clinic has herds of upper level surgical residents literally. Dr. Baghai did not know the case, and my persmission was refused 3X for her to touch the case with any surgical instrument. It was agreed that Dr. Sarr would use a Board-qualified plastic surgeon and Mayo Clinic has a whole Department of them - they walk the halls in 6-packs. Further, Dr. Sarr probably took me to surgery hypothyroid as the Mayo Clinic missed the thyroid swelling and thyroiditis = the woman foreign MD rubber-stamp surgical clearance. She examined me in between doing her Board studying and answering her phone. No Staff Member could second-opinion or go over a physician-patient, not in time for Dr. Sarr to cut and leave on the next plane out. Dr. Sarr couldn't do the abdominal exam, and she couldn't do a thyroid exam or take a history, or help in between taking care of herself and her needs. Mayo Clinic needs to find a surgeon who can re-attach all the muscles to their individual fascias. Dr. Sarr needs to be held to written consents, workups, and the procedure that he has discussed not the procedure that he wants to do for some publication; the 'neuroma surgery' that doesn't work if you don't have a neuroma. Neuromas are usually beneath the muscles and can show on MRI - but no MRI scan was ordered, no nerve block was tried. Yet Dr. Sarr planned for this procedure apparently = he was ready to cut every fascia he could see, just couldn't put them back together again. Dr. Sarr was told that if he found something in the muscles, all options had to be discussed before he proceeded further - so I was put under anesthesia as Dr. Sarr can't talk to patients about options, or stop and close. This happened 20 minutes before the procedure with another piles of anesthesia guy lies - that he was going to 'watch' me? Dr. Sarr couldn't close and re-study the situation because he had too much of an ego - he knew that a scan needed to be ordered before the surgery that he did. Just some humility, that the initial impression was wrong, would have saved 3 abdominal muscles and me a lifetime of pain, discomfort and mutilation. It would have saved my parents some grief; they tried to keep me intact so that Dr. Sarr could cut everything in a misguided moment of misjudgment? Yet he had every surgeon consultant that he could have possibly needed to ask to come in the room there within the surgical suites, he could have gotten my father MD on the phone. All he had to do was ask someone to find this person, get my father on the phone. But that takes thought, clear thought, good surgical judgment. Dr. Sarr couldn't put the muscles back together again - and there's no explanation of this 10 years later. Then Dr. Sarr shouldn't be lying after the fact that he did any closure' or skin to skin' and if he did skin-to-skin then he cut the muscles and couldn't put them back? Confusing. Also, my name and case needs to be out of the Mayo Clinic airway study I said No' to anything in my mouth or near my throat that was just forced. Dr. Sarr supersizes surgical procedures, like McDonald's Happy Meal combos for less, for Mayo Clinic money and building funds, and puts patients at risk. Jill Beed thinks it's a joke that she can talk to my father about my father thought that Mayo Clinic butchered his daughter as a demo, but he's too professional to say that - he's just sad and what can he say after-the-fact. And my father doesn't want any phone calls from Jill Beed Esq. whining about whatever. Dr. Sarr needs to explain 10 years later why he couldn't assess things without cutting all the muscle fascias, bring in the plastic surgeon or surgical staff for a second-opinion before proceeding, and why he couldn't - with all the expertise at Mayo Clinic - put all the muscles back with their respective fascias again. Afterall, he invented this procedure and they let him do it. Why remains the question and who can undo this mess?

On 10-12-01 I went into the Mayo Clinic, (St. Luke's Hospital) Jacksonville, Florida for heart surgery. Due to a mistake they punctured my stomach. I had, MRSA, peritonitis, pneumonia and my gall bladder stopped working. I went home as a decrepit invalid with drainage bottles hanging from me, infected with invasive candidiasis (from which, four out of ten people who get it, die), a collapsed lung, suffering from excruciatingly painful bedsores and a painful wound in my abdomen which, despite following the Mayo's recommendations to the letter, would not heal. They nearly killed me, took over two years of my life away and, after agreeing to cancel their bill (to see the Mayo's letter agreeing this, view page 6 at mayovictim com), waited for the medical malpractice suit time limit to expire and in May 2005, sued me. Since that time I've become a Mayo Clinic watcher. I've seen a drip, drip, drip of negativity about the institution which seems to be increasing. I've seen press reports about Mayo Clinic doctors being accused of traveling for a sexual tryst with an under age girl, another photgraphing a patient's genitals with his cell phone during surgery. The mayo Foundation (parent of the Mayo Clinic) were also fined $6.5 million for mis-appying a federal research grant. They have an effective P.R. (Dept. of External Affairs) and Risk management (legal) department that's working overtime. You may see copies of the documents, letters and photographs of what they did to me and links to some other stories about the Mayo Clinic by going to mayovictim. ROR may have a rule against posting the addresses of web sites but if this gets through just add the period to the web address above.

Jill Beed Dr. Sarr CANNOT ANSWER THE QUESTION of why he did a bizarre procedure, under an experimental airway, when the patient said NO. . .

#47Author of original report

Sun, October 26, 2008

The problem Jill Beed is that Dr. Sarr CAN'T justify what he did, or answer THE QUESTION, that he likes to disfigure women patients without a thought. Dr. Michael Sarr can't answer why he did this surgical procedure on me that day, except that HE COULD because you gave him the WINDOW with no WRITTEN patient consent forms, and put him under pressures that he is not handling well to find procedures for trainees at the expense of patient care and outcomes - even the workup wasn't done while Dr. Sarr obsessed about bringing a student/intern/resident 'in' on the case - and the student/intern/resident weren't in the room = lazy, divas (male & female), etc. Dr. Sarr spent an HOUR+ at least trying to SELL me a MALE resident to do the surgery, when he should have been ordering the MRI of the abdominal wall, and when I wouldn't agree, he said OK and then did it anyways (without the MRI that he forgot to order in the SELL = he's a used-car-salesman of male residents) - why things turned out badly. Lies about procedures never work. You CAN'T FORCE MEDICAL STUDENTS, INTERNS, RESIDENTS ETC on patients in MOST STATES, and especitally during prime time hours with piles of 5-year surgical residency trainees walking the surgical floors begging/drooling to help - that was the situation that day, ie plastic surgeons walking the halls and Dr. Baghai butchering me with her black student - with no experience and no knowledge of the case. In my day, residents who didn't show to workup the patient, didn't get to participate in the surgery. This was cruel, unnecessary and psychotic reasoning to give someone PRACTICE. Mine was a redo procedure, and you should have honored my requests. And Dr. Sarr did not do the closure as he lied to my father - that not what he told me before it became obvious that he goofed in many ways as he didn't study the situation. Didn't do his homework. Dr. Sarr CAN'T ANSWER THE QUESTION of why he did that surgery = the problem. And it can't heal until someone with huge surgical expertise cuts out more of the scar tissue and does another meticulous revision. Dr. Sarr knew that this EXTREME of surgical procedure, without any workup, was WRONG but didn't want to stop and embarass himself in front of the student/intern = he had to give them a show even if it disfigured and mutilated me. SICK. You are doing the wrong kind of training if you PUT OUT that a surgery will always have a SHOW, PERITONEUM peak, or NERVE you can remove. Sometimes you get in and have to CLOSE = what should have happened, but Dr. Sarr is too immature to admit that he had the wrong impression and that more workup was needed before any dissection of the muscles = hard to admit in front of a stupid woman intern???? That's the other problem. Where is the maturity that Mayo Clinic surgeons/physicians are supposed to have? Tell me, and then you just stop the email, lie, cover up, refuse to answer the questions about the mistakes. . .

Dr. Sarr doesn't see patients back and does procedures on them that he doesn't think about for 5 minutes - have a Grand Rounds for solutions

#48Author of original report

Mon, October 20, 2008

Dr. Sarr does procedures on women patients that are unacceptable for cosmetic or functional purposes. He needs to think about his operative choices, and choices of help in the OR. For the situation where the muscle mess hasn't healed in 9 years - he needs to do a Grand Rounds at Mayo Clinic and invite solutions. How to repair the muscles that he messed up in an outdated procedure from the book of unacceptable procedures - taking out normal inflamed abdominal nerves should have gone out in the 1980s - but then Dr. Baghai was the help that day. Jill Beed and Dr. Sarr should have a meeting of the BEST of the surgical/plastic staff and invite solutions and names of a repair surgeon and approach. What he should have done in the first place in 1999; consultation.

Dr. Sarr takes abdominal wall pain to the dangerous extreme of cutting out inflamed nerves for intern/student shows; Dr. Cortese approved this.

#49Author of original report

Sat, October 18, 2008

Dr. Sarr goes to the dangerous point with abdominal wall pain: no evaluation, no scans, no Carnett's sign testing, no marking of the point of tenderness - he just cuts until he finds something. And it's not just that the BLACK student who did the closure was incompetent, cruel, gross in physical everything, was not to be in the room, and the case was beyond any surgical ability that he had - the muscles were not to be TOUCHED, and that was the VERBAL AGREEMENT and why my parents were not at St. Mary's Hospital that day. They wanted to come but I said I would be AWAKE and it was only a LOCAL procedure, but multilation was what Dr. Sarr planned with 'help' that wouldn't know any better to question. Dr. Sarr lied about what he planned that day 9 years ago; he planned to do a 'NEUROMA SURGERY' and I (the patient) planned to just get painful old scar tissue removed, old sutures/suture material removed, and to have the incision revised by a Mayo Clinic plastic surgeon. Because there are no PATIENT CONSENT FORMS, this wasn't clear to Dr. Sarr, anesthesia, or Dr. Baghai and her smelly black goon shadow. If anything else was found it was to be DISCUSSED before any muscles or fascia were cut beyond healing - that was the VERBAL AGREEMENT 3 TIMES. Because Dr. Michael Sarr agreed that he would STOP at the MUSCLES, and as he was the Chief of General Surgery - so I thought that meant that I could TRUST HIS WORD - I agreed to a limited procedure. His nodding, or not protesting, I thought meant that he would allow me the workup, and discussion of ALL OPTIONS, before proceeding with an muscle dissection; if this pain wasn't more sutures from an old procedure. Dr. Sarr was told that I had to be AWAKE as I was alone, and he didn't respect that TRUST or need - he had me knocked out like a common prostitute so that he could voyeuristically open my abdominal muscles and then throw me out on the street after 2 hours with EVERY ABDOMININAL MUSCLE CUT 2 WAYS - so badly that it hasn't healed in 9 years. It was like 'quartering' done Mayo Clinic-style. This is extreme violation of PATIENT TRUST and PATIENT CONSENT. The procedure wasn't discussed as Dr. Sarr was TOLD no less than 3 times that I didn't want any nerves or neuromas removed, or muscles touched. The nerves/neuromas regrow and the muscles can't heal if you take them off the fascia, and they never heal with the same tension or strength leading to back problems and CHRONIC ABDOMINAL WALL PAIN - this Dr. Sarr and Mrs. Sarr RN both know. This Dr. Cortese, who allows this dangerous butchery, knows. It was to be JUST an 'exploration,' with no approaches into any abdominal wall muscles - none were discussed. And I did ONE YEAR OF GENERAL SURGERY RESIDENCY and YEARS of surgical assisting - but Dr. Sarr thought I was just a woman bimbo with no brains and no thoughts that he could or had to respect. After all, even if I've dated Mayo attendings, I wasn't married to any current ones so Dr. Sarr could do whatever he wanted without censure or oversight. NO REALLY CARED, and no one really cares to this day about my Mayo Clinic number. Guess if I had married Andy Oldenberg MD, who I went to Medical School with, then maybe Dr. Sarr would have listened, but Andy stopped talking to me several months into Medical School lest I distract him, or make him re-consider, from his pre-arranged-deal marriage. It was a done deal and both parents were happy with the arrangement. My parents didn't own the University Green Road Medical Office Building or the Cuyahoga County Airport, and I was going to be an MD who had to work, but that wasn't good enough, and wouldn't pull enough strings for recommendations for his career. Dr. Oldenberg had to get to Mayo Clinic, and be a cardiac surgeon, that was his goal as The Cleveland Clinic wasn't good enough, and my parents didn't have the money and the local political MD clout - and so Andy decided that he couldn't do this on his own and had to go back to what he had planned before I spoke with him/saw him/met up with him in Medical School. So years ago, I lost a friend to the Mayo Clinic production machine; nothing less would satisfy Dr. Oldenberg and he got what he wanted. And so I was alone that day with Dr. Sarr of the bizarre surgical plan and his two stooges; alone because the men in my life are as backboneless, thoughtless, and sensitivity-chip-missing as Dr. Sarr; anything for the GLORY OF THE MAYO CLINIC. And I didn't donate my body, muscles or abdominal wall nerves to Mayo Clinic - they just took them. The patient knew what and why she was asking and limiting the procedure: because the muscles wouldn't heal with chronic inflammation from auto-immune thyroiditis going on (which Dr. Sarr didn't bother to ask about as surgeons don't care about medical anything), because she had early ovarian failure that would need a pelvic ultrasound anyways (but he didn't get that far as he wasn't concerned except that a resident got to cut me. and that he got a surgery = numbers for Jill Beed and administration statistics). 'CUT BABY CUT' is the mantra at Mayo Clinic; no thought, no patient workup, and no patient differential diagnosis. Everything is testosterone-heavy, male-machine-driven, medical facts minus, surgical barbarity -- because Jill Beed defends this. The woman fellow who cleared the surgery was doing her Boards studying, was foreign, didn't look at me or up from her papers for more than 5 minutes, and was unable to be talked to/connected with about my concerns that Dr. Sarr was railroading a surgery, when I needed more workup that I was scheduled for in the following days - workup that I never got. Dr. Cortese needs to speak DIRECTLY with me as this medical miss stuff has gone on since 1991 - when instead of checking even a vitamin D level I got a multiple myeloma workup - again something that I didn't need. But the Fellow that day was the perfect surgical clearance RUBBER STAMP, and that's why he had a SPECIAL DEAL TO USE HER - knew her phone number. The patient (ME) didn't make an appointment with Dr. Sarr ever (why I hadn't checked him out) - was sent to him for the GLORY of the Mayo Clinic - to find something to get money for, some procedure, even if it wasn't what she needed or for the problem that she had - CUT BABY CUT. Dr. Sarr was the 'fixer' for that approach; he invented it. Trial of a local anesthetic or steroid wasn't tried. Dr. Baghai didn't work anything up - she was just a cutter and not a very good one at that. Dr. Cortese apparently hasn't read the 2001 American Family Physician article about The Abdominal Wall: An Overlooked Source of Pain - the article that was sent to Jill Beed twice now - who's also ignorant of how Dr. Sarr twists things to get Mayo surgeries that aren't indicated, before the workup that would stop the surgery or options are discussed. The patient came to find a cause of the pain, for reassurance, and to get the OPTIONS. She agreed to a limited surgery because it seemed that even The Mayo Clinic wouldn't offer her any other options - how Dr. Cortese has things arranged. It wasn't what she wanted or what her parents wanted, but she didn't get a good physical exam or abdominal wall exam - she got surgerized for something that she didn't have and a normal nerve removed -- for sport, for demonstration, for 'geewhiz' Dr. Sarr has done it again - pulled a nerve out of the abdominal wall. Maybe he should schedule a removal of the rest of the nerves. . .it's certainly bloody spectacular as a procedure. Now my parent's problem is that Dr. Michael Sarr wouldn't do this to HIS DAUGHTER or WIFE - and you did it to me (THEIR DAUGHTER) as a DEMO. Mrs. Sarr wouldn't let this procedure be considered for herself or her children for sure, and Dr. Sarr KNOWS this. There was no discussion of this ad lib procedure, no patient series (and no guy would ever agree to this muscle destruction procedure where you cut every fascia: destroys those six-pack abdominal muscles for life). You have to drug someone and do it to them under anesthesia, and then tell them that they 'needed it' - like what was done to me and there was NO EMERGENCY OR NEED FOR THIS APPROACH. Dr. Cortese wouldn't agree or put his daughter through this, but Dr. Cortese/Jill Beed would allow Dr. Sarr to do this to another woman professional for SHOW, as it wasn't the procedure that she needed. No physicians with less than 5 years of general surgery experience was supposed to touch anything - this was a re-do and very painful for the patient (me). The woman intern had a couple months and the student and couple days experience, and Dr. Sarr was begged - as a woman being raped begs her captor - TO NOT DO THIS. HE DIDN'T CARE. I knew the complications of botched procedures by interns, residents and students - months, multiple painful repair surgeries, years of living with the mistakes. Knew these complications, and I didn't know until 2 minutes before I was drugged that Dr. Sarr was planning that for me anyways. And I should have screamed. Dr. Sarr/Dr. Cortese/Jill Beed you all need to find a woman general surgeon/plastic surgeon to fix 3 muscles back to better than they are now, and to stop this mutilation and dangerous SURGICAL CUTTING approach to abdominal wall pain. It might have been you. If the Mayo Clinic does it then the problem is that every other place thinks this is ok - and it isn't. Try even thinking about this procedure being done on yourself. Dr. Cortese might not read this but his secretaries will.

EARTH TO JILL BEED: another nasty threatening letter sent to the wrong address is not going to solve the problem

#50Author of original report

Fri, October 17, 2008

Earth to Jill Beed - another threatening, nasty letter sent to the wrong Ohio address is not going to solve the problem of the surgery that was never discussed, that I never agreed to, and which hasn't healed - a surgery that I've never seen done on ANYONE ELSE in my whole career. Where is the case series? In 1999 THREE attempts were made to made CLEAR TO DR. SARR that the ABDOMINAL muscles were not to be dissected, touched, cut, or quartered - you 'quartered' my RLQ abdominal muscles like the medieval English used to torture dissidents/Catholics etc by doing - and it's TORTURE TO LIVE WITH, torture to wear clothing, and torture to live with because you feel so disfigured, multilated, and raped for academic curiosity = the Dr. Cortese excuse for medical care. And I said NO AIRWAY, NO ANESTHESIA, and this was interpreted as I WANTED THOSE THINGS - just like women are always asking to be hurt. . .But you would know that if YOU SAW THE PATIENTS BACK FROM THIS PROCEDURE, if you did ANY post-op care or followup at Mayo Clinic Rochester. But you just BUTCHER and drop the patient. Collect the money and run, then write a letter from Jill Beed to solve the problem. Jill Beed hasn't solved the problem in 9 years. The muscles haven't healed in 9 years - this procedure needs to be banned or re-thought, and all patients offered revisions AT MAYO EXPENSE. The nerve was inflammed from too many prior surgeries and there should have been a DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS - but it was (1)neuroma, (2) neuroma, and (3) neuroma, and the PROBLEM WAS NOT A NEUROMA = EARTH TO DR. SARR = EVERYTHING IS NOT A NEUROMA. That which looks like a neuroma, seems a neuroma and might be a neuroma = might not be a neuroma = why you do a differential diagnosis and workup the problem = just like a medical student and resident are supposed to do BEFORE THEY CUT ANYTING or any surgery is scheduled. But the surgery gets scheduled at Mayo and the workup might or might not get done ever. That's DANGEROUS. The muscles should not have been TOUCHED without PROPER WORKUP, SCANS, and THOUGHT. Dr. Cortese knows this in his medical heart. Dr. Sarr though, like you Ms. Beed, perseverates in the wrong way of doing things and the wrong surgeries for the wrong patients - because he's too busy playing with the boys and trying to talk you into a resident doing the surgery . . . he's got a guy in mind. . . and I didn't donate my body to the Mayo Board of Governors for experimentation. I didn't come to Mayo Clinic to have an INTERN and STUDENT do my surgery or even a RESIDENT - or even touch me. My problem was a conundrum for the Chief of General Surgery at University Hospitals in Ohio - and guess what everyone was wrong, and no one could diagnose a normal nerve inflammed in an old incision - not the biggest or the best. Where did you get the bizarre notion that a student and intern should take the case and be able to pull it off? I had more surgical training than the combined surgical training of the 'help' that you dragged off the lowest tier of Mayo Clinic help. The Incision was supposed to be closed by a PLASTIC SURGEON - as I requested - and you have plastic surgeons walking the halls doing nothing at Mayo Clinic while the interns make mistake after mistake as they never saw the patient before, never worked up the patient and know NOTHING about the case or the patient. The problem is that the Mayo Clinic has no consent forms - so the surgeon can do whatever he wants with you and you never objected in writing. That's the excuse that the Medical Board of Minnesota gives for not stopping these procedures and Dr. Sarr from doing MORE of them, so he's still doing them. You'd know my address if you did post-op follow up. But you are too cavalier, arrogant, and that's beneath Mayo Clinic. Grow up.

If any physician at Mayo Clinic knows a surgeon who has had some experience or 'luck' repairing these Dr. Sarr procedures - Jill Beed and Dr. Cortese's office has my information

#51Author of original report

If any physician at Mayo clinic knows a surgeon who has had some experience or 'luck' repairing these Dr. Sarr abdominal muscle multilations - Dr. Denis Cortese's office or Jill Beed's office has my information (between threats and phone hang ups, they have my phone number). That's the other thing, they do a procedure that you've never seen done before or anywhere, without discussion, then suddenly you don't have a followup appointment, and are threatened by Jill Beed and hung up on by Dr. Cortese's staff. Everyone was obliging until you had the "PROCEDURE" and then. . .go fish. I didn't ask Mayo Clinic to mutilate me - I asked for a local procedure to clean out the scar tissue in an old incision = simple request = SIMPLE. Now 2 operative reports later, with different sutures used, things are not simple. Maybe Dr. Cortese's wife and children need to experience this muscle fascia mess and all the scarring and disfigurement = where are the pictures of all the patients that Dr. Michael Sarr has done this procedure on? - in plastic surgeon's offices all around the country? No Mayo stats on that one. All that was needed was an abdominal pain workup for pain in an old incision - for superficial, above the muscles, abdominal pain - which is something that Family Practice physicians can do apparently, but NOT MAYO CLINIC - they just cut, tear, rip, and mutilate and talk about the bloody GLORY of the Mayo Clinic = all Dr. Sarr could discuss. Neither Dr. Baghai (who can't cut an incision on a dotted line) nor her 'help' could stitch - and Dr. Sarr then said that 'he did it.' Well if he did anything, he was drunk or drugged - with that result and the stinky dressings that looked like a 5-year old did the procedure and taped the dressing. I've seen 5-year olds with better manual dexterity. The problem with Equal Opportunity is that the black medical students will have gotten 'Cs' in college and into Mayo Medical School and ORs - like the one he sent after me smelling of sweat and cologne - it was the SMELL that got me before they drugged me out. And I had 'friends' among the attendings at Mayo Clinic - but not a one would tell me about the Dr. Sarr mutilation procedures - that he lies gangbusters and does the procedure of the day or publicaton. Dr. Sarr will take a lovely body, with ONE POINT OF PAIN, and tears it apart piece by piece, muscle by muscle, and you've pleaded with him (like a criminal's victim) that if he does this procedure he is NOT TO TOUCH THE MUSCLES - as yours won't heal as this incision was operated on twice before. But he doesn't believe you and has to mutilate. And if the Chief of General Surgery at University Hospitals in Cleveland was puzzled, this was not a Dr. Baghai case - it was Dr. Sarr's responsibility to keep me awake and do this privately and under local to localize the pain and problem - as WAS DISCUSSED. So Dr. Sarr has to touch and cut and can't get the muscles quite back together again - as Dr. Cortese and Jill Beed ALLOW. . .Where are the statistics on this procedure - in 9 years they haven't appeared? Where are the stats on the 'experimental' airway they tried on me - against my consent - there was no consent or discussion. All the monies need to be returned to Medical Mutual of Ohio - as was originally agreed with Mayo Administration. I want my 'case' out of the experimental airway literature paper - I did not agree to randomization or to ANY AIRWAY OR ANESTHESIA. I said LOCAL. . .LOCAL. . .LOCAL. And the secretaries that hang up on me will say that I speak excellent English, very clearly, very appropriately, but I'm not happy. It appeared that both Dr. Baghai and her help were 'foreign' and couldn't approach me and ASK to be in on the procedure - like every other resident and student do - they just had divine 'right' to tear me up for their amusement - it certainly wasn't for my health or well-being. I'm not better off after this procedure, I'm worse - and Dr. Sarr was told that first he was 'not to do more harm' medically or surgically - not to cut anything that he didn't have to. I refused that he remove a 'neuroma' - so that's what he did only it was a 'normal' nerve. The incision shouldn't have had to be entirely opened up and ripped apart for practice for Dr. Baghai - one point of pain on one side of the incision - dime size. It was agreed that Dr. Sarr would stop at the muscles and discuss with me OR MY FATHER SURGEON WHO CAN'T FIGURE OUT DR. SARR MUTILATING HIS DAUGHTER. Dr. Sarr's daughter needs this procedure apparently before he'll stop doing it to other surgeon's daughters. It's a procedure that NO ONE in their RIGHT MIND WOULD CONSENT TO - secretary or physician. But Dr. Sarr is allowed to inflict this procedure on patients - women especially and then you aren't supposed to say anything or contact the Mayo Clinic. Women are trash to be disposed of at Mayo - normal tissue throw it away. Women are trash at Mayo Clinic - and secretaries beware - you could be Dr. Sarr's next mutilation and dumped on the street for the bus hours later - with all your muscles cut. Again if anyone knows someone who can 'fix' or improve Dr. Sarr's rip up job - please find me - that's possible.

Dr. Michael Sarr will mutilate patients with procedures that he never discussed & possibly never did before

#52Author of original report

Tue, October 14, 2008

Dr. Sarr needs to contact the family in this case regarding the name(s) of a surgeon who can undo his muscle mess and a surgery that the family/patient never agreed to. The results of all patients who had this surgery need to be given to the patient and her family. The patient told Dr. Sarr 3x at least that he was not to touch the muscles AS A CONDITION OF THE SURGERY - he didn't care that he mutilated a woman who still wanted to wear fitted clothing - he just wanted a show. He didn't care about any family, dates, friends of the patient -just to cut and get money. The Mayo Clinic needs to stop Dr. Sarr's shows and find some surgeon to undo this procedure. The muscles can't heal. Why is Dr. Sarr doing procedures that he never discussed with the patient? Which the patient never agreed to as she preferred to live with whatever was under the muscles (nerves) rather than have the muscles torn up and ripped apart again = her choice and she didn't have a choice with Dr. Sarr only his choice? The nerve may have been inflamed with thyroid antibodies from an untreated thyroiditis. Mayo Clinic didn't wait for a scan or the lab tests before tearing everything apart to give Dr. Baghai practice - and she couldn't do anything surgical but make a MESS. This is unethical mutilation of the worst sort by an institution that is supposed to have plenty of patients for Dr. Baghia and students to practice on. The patient refused Dr. Baghai and the students several times in heated discussions and agreed to the surgery on the condition that Dr. Sarr (1) do every stitch, and (2) that he not TOUCH the muscles until discussing his findings from repairing/cleaning scar tissue from above the muscles = he had to CLOSE, wake the patient up (or discuss in the OR with a witness) and give her all the options = what the family/parents expected of THE MAYO CLINIC. It was a chop-shop job, and the patient's father could have been called during the surgery to get permission to go into the muscles or to make a decision not to = the patient's father was a surgeon. Dr. Sarr did not do the closure unless he was drunk or drugged - it was a bizarre mess that took a Board Certified experienced plastic surgeon OVER AN HOUR to EXTENSIVELY REPAIR. The Mayo Clinic needs to return all the monies for this to Medical Mutual of Ohio.

The Mayo Clinic needs to START to be honest about Dr. Michael Sarr's procedures, results, and who can 'fix' them - he lies about everything and you can believe his surgical reports.

#53Author of original report

Thu, October 09, 2008

Dr. Michael Sarr MAKES UP procedures and does them on patients without ANY STUDY, SCANS, THOUGHTS, papers, precedents - he's completely sadistic especially about women patients - just inferior human beings for demos. The Mayo Clinic needs to come 'clean' on his results with the surgery that was involved in this situation - how many patients did he do this on, who in the US can undo his (& Dr. Baghais) bizarre patient cruelties and muscle destructions. Does anyone at MAYO CLINIC in administration think about things or just collect money? At least the State Medical Board thought about some sanctions TWICE, Mayo Clinic has yet to think about his surgeries without patient consents even ONCE. They know where to find me and calling hasn't gotten an answer, Jill Beed refuses to answer her emails - needs one of Dr. Sarr's surgeries. So this is the Mayo Clinic of such professionalism?

The State Medical Board of Minnesota can't regulate the Mayo Clinic and won't vote to require that Dr. Sarr obtain written surgical consents before he does 'explorations' - limiting his procedures to what he discussed and what the patient agreed to.

#54Author of original report

Wed, October 08, 2008

Dr. Michael Sarr gets away with the bizarre abdominal explorations he does on patients (especially WOMEN), bringing in the worst interns and students on the planet (who collect at Mayo Clinic), because the State Medical Board of Minnesota can't regulate hospitals or clinics, and they won't vote to require that Dr. Sarr be required to obtain written surgical consents LIMITING his procedures & anesthesia to what was discussed and agreed to. So Dr. Sarr can literally take anything off and out that he never mentioned, legally, during the procedure. And he can order any anesthesia on a patient who has refused anything except LOCAL. Patients should beware, Dr. Sarr will assume what he wants in the OR. And he won't call your father MD either. Twice in 1999, the Medical Board of Minnesota discussed limiting Dr. Sarr's procedures, and refused in the final vote to do so - knowing that they condemned other women to bizarre mutilating unindicated and extensive procedures - procedures that had never been DISCUSSED or mentioned with the patient or family. He works at THE MAYO CLINIC = the reason. The Mayo Clinic administration and Jill Beed Esq 'approve' Dr. Sarr's extensive mutilations because of the money they bring in - although they couldn't get paid for the full amount in this situation, and other patients need to start refusing to pay for what they didn't agree to, and check their operative reports as to what was done in supposed fact. In this situation, the plastic surgeon in Ohio worked for over an hour to save the incision alone - the incision that Dr. Sarr later claimed that HE CLOSED. Well he only closed it impaired, drunk or on some psychotic medication - given the mess that the plastic surgeon found. And as to whatever other parts of the rest of the procedure that he really did - only Dr. Baghai, in California now, knows what happened and she's not talking for nine years now. [Dr. Sarr does a lot of 'ghost' surgery.] And Dr. Baghai botched whatever she tried to do - she was only an inexperienced intern, and it was requested that she 'WATCH.' Dr. Baghai also needs written patient consent forms to restrict her to her abilities, probably NOW as well as then = she has no judgment. Or you need a cop for every patient in the OR and patient examining rooms at Mayo Clinic = the big shop of horrors. Written consent forms are needed at Mayo Clinic and for every physician, intern and resident at Mayo Clinic - they all assume too much where money and publications are involved. It's not known if there are more patients that had the procedure that the patient in this complaint had - it could have been a PROCEDURE FOR ONE. Dr. Michael Sarr and Jill Beed WON'T SAY how many of these procedures Mayo has done and the results. There will be several operative versions of Dr. Sarr's procedures, and they will change as to what he did, or claims to have done, depending on family questions and legal implications - there were two different versions of the abdominal procedure that's involved in this complaint. And the Medical Board of Minnesota still didn't do anything = they needed maybe THREE DIFFERENT OPERATIVE REPORTS? The nerves Dr. Sarr takes out will never be able to be put back, and the muscles won't heal after he disengages them from all their insertions = this is like Dr. Frankenstein work. Dr. Sarr is not required to do the even the 'normal' basic FAMILY PRACTICE level workup for these surgeries. He just sees you, schedules you for the next day, and the incision/muscles won't heal for years - and you've never heard of this operation or procedure - even as a medical professional. And you as the dumb patient had believed in the Mayo Clinic ethics, high caliber training, and professionalism (they write a lot of books and do a lot of CME course training at Mayo Clinic); that what you consented to in the examining room will limit the procedure = WRONG. Patient advocates will mouth whatever Dr. Michael Sarr tells them for years, and Jill Beed thinks he's just 'wonderful' as to how he gets out of liability = a lawyer's dream. There's no WORKUP REQUIRED for Dr. Sarr, and he has a 'special' route of surgical clearance at Mayo Clinic = expedited. But the problem lies with the Minnesota Medical Board that won't vote to require that Dr. Sarr, and other physicians known to do these extensive undiscussed procedures for 'one point' of abdominal pain, be regulated even in the most BASIC way - that of having to discuss the procedure and allow that the patient sign that they refuse this procedure (or accept if they are stupid enough). The procedure he did on the patient in 1999 - she, like other criminal victims of mutilation or drowning, refused three times - but she could only do this verbally, in front of nurses, and privately in conversations with Dr. Sarr. That didn't count in the end. Dr. Michael Sarr then told the physicians involved (intern, anesthesia) that it was consented to - because he had no written consent form to show otherwise and 'doctored' the records. There was no emergency with this procedure, but somehow Dr. Sarr had surgical 'slots' available for the next day??? The Minnesota Board of Medical Practice needs to limit Dr. Michael Sarr's procedures by allowing patients that come to Mayo Clinic the BASIC RIGHT to refuse by signing a written consent form - that is then a RECORD of what was agreed to on the chart that goes to the OR and any anesthesia consult. In the case described both Dr. Sarr's nerve & muscle dissection were refused as well as any general anesthesia. Because none of this was 'recorded' -there was anesthesia just given to the patient (her parents were in another state thinking this was a procedure under 'local'), and the horrible dissection and cutting of her abdominal muscles occurred and has never healed. It was not indicated, just a nerve block was needed. But Mayo Clinic doesn't do nerve blocks as this is only SMALL CHANGE. The Minnesota Board should consider themselves responsible and negligent as to its regulation of Dr. Michael Sarr, and the other physicians involved in this situation at Mayo Clinic, by their failure to vote in 1999 to limit his procedures to what the patient agrees to by mandating WRITTEN SIGNED surgical consent forms. Patients don't even have the most basic rights at Mayo Clinic Rochester MN.

Dr. Sarr needs to contact Dr. Thomas Stellato at University Hospitals in Cleveland detailing every part of the surgery that he did, what he did, and what part Dr. Baghai did - I was not an intern case or Dr. Stellato would have known instantly what I had.

Dr. Sarr needs to contact Dr. Stellato - who he knows - with EVERY STITCH, RIP, CUT that he did in my incision and what Dr. Baghai did - which will need to be done over or removed. This needs to be done asap. Phone: 216-844-3021. I came to Mayo for Dr. Sarr's expertise, not to be butchered - Dr. Stellato was too busy getting business and management training - or so he said. Dr. Baghai shouldn't have been touching patients and she was refused 3x. What did I have to do? Hire a cop, bodyguard, have patients supervising Dr. Sarr. This wasn't anything that a student or resident should have touched - and the MUSCLES were not to be touched. If I see her I will call the police on her - what she did was disgusting, unconcionable, unethical and cruel. Do her kind of butchery to yourself, your wife or daughter, Jill Beed, but not me. Did I have to throw something, scream? What do you have to do to say NO to you Dr. Sarr?

Dr. Michael Sarr takes off part of women patient's abdominal walls to follow 'normal' nerves and remove them without patient consent, without studies, without even colleague consultation at Mayo Clinic for a second opinion even.

#58Author of original report

Mon, September 29, 2008

Dr. Sarr takes off part of women patient's abdominal walls in these procedures, just cuts them off the midline for SHOW, to 'see' because his glasses are too thick and his hands too big for small women patients = the butcher of Mayo Clinic. Meanwhile, Dr. Thomas Stellato, who caused this 'nerve irritation,' sits in Ohio at University Hospitals doing BARIATRIC re-routing procedures - so he doesn't have time to help you or discuss anything - Dr. Stellato just refuses to DISCUSS anything as he can't be bothered with nerves he irritated, patients or the parents of the patients that he leaves with his problems. Dr. Shuck allows Dr. Stellato to just 'walk away' from problems he causes - and it was Dr. Stellator's job to do a diagnostic workup in Ohio - but he can't be bothered between business papers at Weatherhead School of Management = Dr. Stellato is too busy trying to get to be Chief of the Department of Surgery via Weatherhed instead of patient care. So Dr. Sarr at Mayo Clinic doesn't have to do an abdominal ultrasound, MRI or any consultation with anesthesia about a nerve block EITHER. There's no SECOND OPINION needed for this maiming & disfigurement - Dr. Sarr can just DO IT without explaining to the patient until the family gets a copy of the operative report and is in SHOCK. DR. SARR gets away with no DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OR DIAGNOSTIC WORKUP - PATIENTS BE WARNED. And his help, Dr. Baghia, is too stupid to do anything but cut & damage patient's muscles & nerves - with railroaded patient clearances, and anesthesia clearances 20 minutes before surgery - where you don't know what anesthesia is doing as the patient said 'No' to general anesthesia and DR. BAGHAI from WHEREVER. Meanwhile, Dr. Michael Gauderer, a pediatric surgeon who knows the woman patient, and her family, and is now practicing in Greenville, SC has REFUSED to help - even though the woman patient has begged him in letter after letter that she will be butchered/disfigured by ADULT general surgeons - because she's too small and they just rip and cut. The woman patient still has a file of his replies. And no one has to do ANY DIAGNOSTIC STUDIES - they are just calling the patient 'exaggerating.' So the nerve is removed at MAYO CLINIC for being 'foreign' - nothing FOREIGN about it or the rather common problem that none of these guys can handle = ABDOMINAL WALL PAIN DIAGNOSIS & TREATMENT WITHOUT DANGEROUS SURGERIES. Dr. Sarr just does the dangerous & disfiguring surgery for insurance money. So the woman patient is 'butchered,' without mercy, to remove an inflamed 'normal' nerve in an old incision because ADULT male general surgeons, some who've known her for years, can't diagnose this or treat it conservatively - and she's begged them all around the country - from SC to MN to OHIO to FLORIDA (where she knows a SILENT Mayo surgeon that she went to school with - who never STANDS UP). Dr. Sarr was told that he HAD TO STOP AT THE ABDOMINAL MUSCLES, THREE TIMES WITH WITNESSES, and that the patient REFUSED HIS CUTTING THROUGH THE FASCIA TO TOUCH THEM - because she was ALONE at Mayo Clinic. Family STATES away. Dr. Sarr had to stop, close, and detail the options before proceeding further - or so SHE SAID, but Dr. Sarr didn't have to listen. Dr. Sarr doesn't need patient consent. The Administration and BOARD OF TRUSTEES at Mayo Clinic KNOW this is not RIGHT, or ethical, but ANYTHING GOES WITH DR. SARR - he can literally 'take an abdominal wall off' while the Chief Legal Counsel Jill Beed hides all the problems and missed diagnoses between her cups of coffee and emails protesting that Dr. Sarr is a 'great guy' and to stop questioning. Well the PAIN of his surgeries goes on for decades, and you are never the same after his taking the abdominal muscless off the fascia for a DEMO. It's just common sense that this is horrible surgery. The Mayo Clinic lets Dr. Sarr do procedures AGAINST PATIENT CONSENT, with an anesthesia that the patient refused until her parents could be in Minnesota. Dr. Sarr rips things apart BEFORE parents or family can get there, and then just threatens the parents on the phone if they say anything - finds where the father MD works even. Mayo Clinic administration refuses to review Dr. Sarr's procedures, mutilations or threats. Dr. Thomas Stellato - whose responsibility it was - just walks away, and Dr. Gauderer 'hides his head in the SC sand.' Mrs. Barbara Sarr, a nurse who would never allow Dr. Sarr to do this on herself or any daughter, just ignores what her husband does to other innocent 'victims.' Dr. Baghai thinks anything goes to get her Boards in Surgery - she's an incompetent brought in to get experience. Dr. Baghai had never met the woman patient or examined her before cutting through all her abdomen for FUN. The POINT OF PAIN wasn't even marked with a surgical marker; so no one at Mayo in surgery KNEW what they were looking for or where the problem was. It was just SHOW AND TELL in the most crude way - while the administration hides in carpeted glossy offices - too busy to see the maiming of women patients for $.

Jill Beed, Chief Legal Counsel for Mayo, bounces emails after finding out that Dr. Sarr does unnecessary & cruel operations without WORKUPS.

#59Author of original report

Fri, September 26, 2008

Dr. Sarr needs to investigate ALL causes of abdominal wall pain before cutting nerves out of abdomens for medical student viewing. In the situation described, there was no workup allowed, he was so arrogant and cocky, and the surgery was not agreed to - he just did it because that's the only thing he knows - to cut. He wouldn't stop the procedure and do the necessary studies that he was too confident to do pre-op. Dr. Sarr was told not to TOUCH THE ABDOMINAL MUSCLES ON THE PATIENT DESCRIBED, and he just laughed that 'that's not the way that Mayo does it.' The anesthesiologist didn't listen to reason either. Mayo Clinic needs to review all of Dr. Sarr's cases of NEUROMAS, and whether nerve blocks would have worked, and have someone reviewing his forcing procedures on women patients - where they didn't consent in any way or want a 'neuroma' removed. Mayo Clinic needs to review all the cases where Dr. Baghai participated - just doing cruel unindicated surgery becuase an attending wanted it - where she didn't KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE PATIENT OR THE PROCEDURE - what Jill Beed allows = butchering of female patients with resident ignorance, stupidity, and incompetence. Jill Beed Esq has to stop defending this, and stop medical students/residents from participating in procedures where they are asked not to be there for GOOD REASONS of patient confidentiality and SAFETY.

Abdominal Wall Pain has a DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS = something every Chief of General Surgery should know

#60Author of original report

Sun, September 21, 2008

Dr. Sarr did not do any differential diagnosis and was only given permission to operate to the abdominal wall and find the cause of the pain - then do the scans and give me the options before proceeding. What Dr. Stellato was supposed to do before he got frustrated with me -but this is something that abdominal surgeons, not general internists, are supposed to know. Please read the article referenced below: The Abdominal Wall: An Overlooked Source of Pain Saud Suleiman, MD, and David E. Johnston, MD Am Family Physician 2001;64:431-8 This is what Dr. Baghai and my surgical clearance Fellow should have known, but you were all concentrating on something else and you ripped me apart - for show. And who can undo this unnecessary procedure and refund my medical insurance for it (Medical Mutual)? It was not agreed to or discussed. At the present time, the victim can't wear clothing against her R abdominal wall due to the multiple surgeries and cuts. If you just thought ONE MOMENT instead of planning parties and trips and to cut someone. . .but you don't. This is malpractice. Dr. Sarr doesn't know what Family Physicians know, and he doesn't READ.

Surgical Rape by Mayo Clinic

#61Author of original report

Sun, September 21, 2008

What Dr. Sarr did represented surgical RAPE; forcing a procedure, anesthesia, and unqualified staff on a patient whose parents were several states away CONVENIENTLY. Dr. Sarr refused nerve block or appropriate scans to pinpoint the procedure, avoid unnecessary surgery and to make the appropriate correct diagnosis of the extent of surgery needed. He FORCED the procedure, himself, and staff on the patient = just like physical RAPE. This is not what his wife would have allowed for his DAUGHTER. Barbara Sarr RN allows her husband to physically abuse other women during surgery.

Mrs. Barbara Sarr - you are to blame also for this as you have a Masters Degree in Nursing and know that surgeons are not supposed to cut every abdominal muscle without having permission, done the homework & scans, and calculated the risk:benefit.

#62Author of original report

Sat, September 20, 2008

Mrs. Barbara Sarr - you are a RN NURSE - and allow that your husband brutalize/mutilate/deform/abuse WOMEN patients in surgery for small change - it's all about economics and brutality - nothing common sense. Just cut everything out and throw away - like the babies these days. The patient above had a Father and Mother RN, who thought that Dr. Sarr would do a LOCAL procedure and present the OPTIONS after studies. He had their phone number and THEY EXPECTED A CALL BEFORE DR. SARR RIPPED ALL THE ABDOMINAL MUSCLES APART - a phone call as her father was a vascular surgeon who cared whether his daughter would marry possibly - and that means not being mutilated & reduced to shreds and scar tissue. The patient was someone else's DAUGHTER. Instead Dr. Sarr ripped/cut every abdominal muscle from midline for an inflammed ENTIRELY NORMAL nerve that probably would have shown on MRI = totally wrecked an abdominal wall of another woman for life for nothing. Maybe he should do this to your DAUGHTER so that you understand and get the gist of this monstrosity - almost like in Hitler's experimentations = everything for a paper. Nothing was approved, just decided by him on SPUR OF THE MOMENT. There's no differential diagnosis, no thought to your husband's procedures, care or surgeries. Rip & cut to the max, mutilate, brutalize, horrify concerned parents. The reason that the patient came to Mayo Clinic was to find the CAUSE/EXPLANATION of the pain and THEN decide what to do. If a local 'look' would help, ok. But neither Dr. Baghia, the anesthesiology, or the 'clearance' lackey understood what was going on, or that the patient had only agreed to local, Dr. Sarr, and no muscles ripped/cut or destroyed. DR. SARR, your lovely husband, LIED FROM START TO FINISH. You can't wear a bathing suit the way that he left her - he knew that. Over $1,000 of plastic surgery hasn't changed things that much either. And you are a NURSE, not a ward secretary or a teacher, a NURSE. WHY?
