A couple years ago, I started having abdominal pain on my left side every couple of months, so I went to the doctor and they found a 4 cm cyst. They initially told me that I would not need surgery and that it would pop on its own. However, the pain started becoming more frequent so I got a CT scan done that revealed that it was a benign cyst that had grown to 16 cm. As a result, l went to Dr. Livhits for the surgery. The surgery and recovery process went well. Dr. Livhits was very informative and I currently have no pain anymore in that area. It was my first time undergoing surgery so I trusted her. I would recommend Dr. Livhits as she was very nice and informative.
