Had my procedure in December 2017 and have had a bit of a rough recovery but we knew there would be a need for another procedure. Dr. Sinervo has treated me with kindness and compassion which I had not found with the Doctors in my local area. He understood that my pain was real and did not attempt to brush me off and hand me birth control. I'm glad we lived close enough to Atlanta to make the surgery happen and the next will be with him as well.

The CEC and Dr. Sinervo are some of the most caring individuals! So helpful, knowledgeable and what a great surgeon! My daughter had already had 2 endometriosis surgeries by age 16. Dr. Sinervo was the 3rd for endo and he found many other issues as well. He was able to correct them all and within 5 days, my daughter was off pain meds (she had been on pain meds for 2 months prior to finding Dr. Sinervo). I don't know what we would have done if we hadn't found Dr. Sinervo because of OBGYN didn't know what else to do for my daughter. I had also tried many alternative forms of help: healing, Myofascial Release, acupuncture, homeopathy, physical therapy, herbs, supplements, etc. and nothing had helped her. We are so relieved that she is so much better! Thank you Dr. Sinervo for being so caring, competent and kind!

While I was symptom free, a cyst was found on my right ovary, quite large so the ovary had to be taken out. My GYN if 21 Years suggested Dr. Sinervo and thank goodness as he also cleaned out a great deal of Endo I did not even know I had which could have caused a lot of trouble down the road! He and his team are the best!!! And the cuts were so tiny. Thank you Dr. Sinervo for World Class Care! Lindy

I researched endometriosis on my own and submitted my patient packet to the CEC and within a few weeks Dr. Kongoasa called me and said that my history indicated that I probably had endometriosis, which I was happy to hear because my Gyno had somewhat dismissed my concerns and gave me antibiotics. I had read that the CEC was top notch in excision of endometriosis, and they definitely are. I was able to have an appointment with Dr. Kongoasa soon after since I am local and met with Dr. Sinervo right before my surgery. They were both knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. They did find and excise endometriosis and have been helpful during my recovery and answer any questions that come up. Dr. Sinervo was very kind and showed my parents photos and explained everything that he found right after the surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Sinervo or Dr. Kongoasa if you suspect endometriosis. The staff at the CEC are also amazing and personable, I really felt that they cared about me.

For the past three years, I was suffering from the pelvic pain every day. My life totally was affected because of this pain. I was getting depressed gradually and I had wished to die because none of my doctors could find the cause of my pain. I had met several OBGs and specialists regarding my health issue, and I had done laparoscopy surgery and lots of procedures in this regard. The only advice of doctors to me was either to take birth control or to do the hysterectomy. They would not care much about finding the cause of my problem. After three years suffering I found Dr. Sinervo through a miracle. I really praise God for getting to know him and his compassionate and kind team. I believe Dr. Sinervo is the best OBG specialist in the world. He is a very kind, Compassionate, caring, dedicated, and responsible person. His positive attitude and especially praying with me before the surgery was very precious to me. After the surgery, I was free of pain. Dr. Sinervo changed my life and I never forget what he did for me. He is always in my prayers. I wish we had more doctors like him in the world.
