Talking - website for rating a potential urogynecologist? website for rating a potential urogynecologist?

/i have a list of 9 urogyns, the closest to me are in pittsburgh, pa.
I am not even sure if I want to have surgery for my stress inc. only when I sneeze or cough hard and thats only when I don't cross my legs. I also have a hypermobility issue.

where on the internet can I find ratings of these urogyns in case I decide to see one? I found a patient rating site but had to pay for a report. most of that only tells if the patient had trouble personally with the doc and how clean the office was or how courteous staff is.

is there such a site that tells how good of a surgeon they are?


right now I am leaning towards these:
*second opinion from a urologist and holding off on the urodynamics testing until then.
*switching over to premarin vag. cream and estriol vag. cream to see if this helps strengthen tissues
*doing kegels ,pelvic exercises, watching posture, and having chiropractic adjustments on the si joints. they seemed to have helped pelvic pain. I had bad trigger points near front anatomy and inner thighs. really helped though painful to release them.. now having some si joint and/or pudendal nerve problems which is also just been helped by my chiropractor.
anyone out there know of a site? or can pm me with web address?
thank you.

Ann--

There are several sites that can helps with finding a good doctor. Suggestadoctor.com is one place that can help. You can see if one of the 9 you have is listed on there. Kudzu.com is another. Those are 2 places I automatically go when checking out medical personnel. One other place is my state's medical board to make sure that any doctors I choose do not have actions against them. [Very important, in my opinion.]

Hope this helps...
