Your experience could guide the next woman's care.
Endometriosis patients deserve to make informed decisions about who they trust with their bodies. By sharing your surgical experience, you become part of something that changes that for every woman who comes after you.
Because word of mouth has always been everything.
When you were diagnosed or suspected you had endometriosis, what did you do first? You asked other women. You searched forums at midnight. You reached out in Facebook groups and Reddit threads. You looked for someone who had already walked this path.
Yet when it came to the most consequential decision, who to let operate on you, most patients were working blind. Know Your Endo Surgeon exists to change that. Your review gives the next woman what you wish you'd had, an honest account from a peer who's been in that room.
Inform the women who come next
Future patients searching for a surgeon in your city or country will find your experience. Your words could help someone choose more wisely or avoid a surgeon who caused harm.
Create accountability
Surgeons know they are being reviewed by the patients they see. Transparent, peer-generated data creates a quiet incentive for better care, better communication and greater honesty.
Validate what others have experienced
When you read a review that mirrors your experience, the dismissal, the gaslighting or the opposite, the surgeon who changed everything, you feel less alone. Your review does that for someone else.
I have seen what the wrong surgeon can cost a woman.
I have spent years working with endometriosis patients and in that time, I have heard the same stories, over and over. Women who were dismissed for a decade before diagnosis. Women who had ablation when they needed excision and returned to surgery within a year.
Most of these women tell me the same thing: "I wish I had known."
The endometriosis community has always shared information with each other. What we haven't had is a structured, searchable, verified repository of real patient experiences with real surgeons. That is what we are building together.
This is peer-to-peer care. And it is the most powerful kind.

Choosing a surgeon should not be a matter of luck.
The difference between a surgeon who excises endometriosis thoroughly and one who ablates it, burning rather than removing, can mean the difference between lasting relief and returning to the operating theatre within 12 months.
The difference between a surgeon who listens and one who dismisses can determine whether a patient leaves her appointment feeling heard or feeling like she imagined her own suffering.
Patients deserve to know these differences before they book. Your review makes that possible.

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need to complete the entire form in one sitting? +
No and we strongly encourage you to take your time. You can stop at any point and return later. If you experienced consultation only (no surgery), simply skip the surgical sections. Partial responses are still valuable — even a few sections completed honestly help build the surgeon's profile.
Can I submit a review for more than one surgeon? +
Yes. If you have been treated by multiple surgeons, you can submit a separate review for each one.
Will the surgeon I'm reviewing be able to identify me? +
No. All identifying details are removed before publication. Your name, email, and any specific information that could identify you are never shared.
What if my experience was extremely negative can I still submit? +
Absolutely. Honest accounts of negative experiences are some of the most valuable contributions. We moderate for factual accuracy and remove identifying details, but we do not censor negative reviews.
What if I want to update or remove my review later? +
You can contact us at any time to request changes or removal of your review.
My surgery was years ago is my experience still relevant? +
Yes. Your experience is always relevant, regardless of when it happened. Historical data helps build a more complete picture of a surgeon's practice over time.
