New Article about Cysts

Question

Hey ya'll, I just wanted to share this article about ovarian cysts and it was written in January of this year...I hate to say it, but this doc gives the benign percentage rate a high of 93%...That's still good, but not as great as 99% of course. Sorry Tascha, I'm not meaning to offend or even send the article for this reason...It just happens to have some other interesting stuff...Written by a gyn in Santa Monica, CA. I think.

If you can find out the name of the author it would be great.  I live and work in the Santa Monica area and know all of the OB/Gyn docs here and can give you a feel for his rep.

What I know of him is that he is really conservative in his approach to medicine which may account for his lower percentage.

I wonder if this is the same doc that Ttobba and Curls mentioned in a thread titled "To oopher or Not to oopher" on 3/9/06?? They said they saw a book written by a Dr.William Parker at Barnes&Noble.

Based on what I read on his site, I ordered his book earlier today.

Whoa! Okay, Green makes 3. That makes what I read seem more reliable. What is the book about?

The book seems to discuss a lot of different topics, fibroids, cysts, endo, etc... in regards to the woman's reproductive system.  Based on the excerpts it talks about symptoms, treatments and a lot of other things.  If you go to the site you will be able to click on a link containing excerpts.  Seems to be yet another source of information.  My book should arrive this Tuesday.
