Douglas Campbell Decker, MD

I went to him for a Bartholin Cyst that he lanced and drained. For my follow up appointment the nurse mentioned that he had another patient who kept on having recurrences to the point where he cut on her so much that she now has to get plastic surgery on her labia to make it look normal. He took a look at my word catheter and tried to exit the room as quickly as possible. I stopped him and asked him what my options were in regards to a follow up and he told me that we needed to remove the gland and it would make a divot in my vagina and that a marsupialization would lead to more recurrences. This is the exact opposite of what my old doctor has told me and he has the highest success rate with marsupializations and to remove this gland is super invasive. My old doctor is from Cincinnati and I had to move due to a job change. I told him that my sister had the same problems as me and with my old doctor he had great successes with marsupializations and he told me "Well, that doctor could've been saying he marsupialized it, but he probably removed it". My response was "I'm pretty sure that's illegal and unethical." He didn't know how to respond. With hearing that he has other patients with deformed lady parts, wanting to cut even further on mine, and suggesting illegal and unethical practices on patients I will not return and recommend nobody else should.

He has been my doctor for 27 yr . Delivered my child and has a great bedside manner . He really care about his patience !.Takes his time you . He has a great nurse and office staff . A pleasure to work with.
