In May 2022 I underwent surgery at a local office for my pilonidal condition in hopes that I would be fixed and recover quickly. Suffice it to say, that did not happen. Fast forward eight months later I was still dealing with an open wound that would not heal despite consistent visits to the doctorContinue reading “Gave Me My Life Back”
For four years I dealt with a pilonidal abscess. I was never able to find a case like mine, four little pits and nothing else. I saw two different dermatologists, who both gave me steroid shots and told me I would need surgery that had a 30% recurrence rate and that I’d never look theContinue reading “I was never able to find a case like mine”
It is unfortunately all too uncommon to find a doctor like Doctor Sternberg these days, and at age 74, I speak from a lifetime of experience. The level of concern and interest he showed me, and his follow up and communication, should be the gold standard of care that medical professionals today should aspire toContinue reading “The kind of doctor that restores one’s faith in healthcare”
I cannot say enough praise for Dr. Sternberg and his team. My son has suffered from Pilonidal Disease for five years, since he was 17 years old. He had endured three surgeries which required years of “healing” from top wound care centers in our home state of Tennessee only to have the problem return. HeContinue reading “I prayed for years… and Dr. Sternberg was the answer”
It’s amazing how much discomfort you can learn to put up with. I had symptoms of pilonidal disease for 12 years, and had multiple unsuccessful “conventional excision” operations over a four year span starting in 2017. I declined a fourth, extremely invasive excision and was prepared to just manage the symptoms. Thankfully, my wife beganContinue reading “Quality of Life Post-op has been Fantastic”
I have suffered from Pilonidal Disease since December 2019, requiring multiple visits to the emergency room, urgent care, and ultimately, a failed excision surgery to remove the “cyst.” Pilonidal Disease and its standard treatments impacted every aspect of my health and lowered my overall quality of life. I could not exercise, working was burdensome, andContinue reading “A solution to my pilonidal problem seemed elusive”
I had been dealing with the pilonidal disease for 6 years and had received a brief operation in Canada that only made it worse. Once in contact with the Sternberg clinic, they were able to tell me exactly what was going on, why the other surgeries fail, and why his technique worked (The Doctors IContinue reading “This surgery gave me my life back”
Every country in the world needs a Pilonidal expert like Dr. Sternberg. I’m a 22 year old male and I suffered from this nasty disease since November 2020. I received surgery for it once which was a wide excisional marsupialization which never healed and i was left with an open wound and multiple mid lineContinue reading “I Traveled… and I Could Not Be Happier”
I can’t recommend Dr. Sternberg and his staff enough, especially Emon, for everything they have done. I’m about 2 and a half months since surgery and I feel better now than I have for the past 5 years. Without any hesitation I would recommend anyone to see Dr. Sternberg. Completely life changing. Thank you Dr.Continue reading “I feel better now than I have for the past 5 years”
My son [suffering from Pilonidal Disease] was referred to a local rural surgeon who proposed a surgery that would have involved months of wound care, possible skin graft and wound vac. We scheduled, but did our research and found Dr. Sternberg. Before we knew it, we were scheduled for the consultation, surgery and follow upContinue reading “Very thankful for Dr. Sternberg’s expertise!”
