Dr. Peter Santa Maria and Dr. Zenonos - UPMC (Pittsburgh)
« on: August 23, 2026, 05:47:00 PM »
One of my top picks for translab surgery is with Dr. Peter Santa Maria and Dr. Zenonos at UPMC. They seem extremely experienced and have made me feel confident in the process.  I haven't seen a single post on these forums about treatment at UPMC.  Does anyone have an experience at UPMC that they can share?

Hi there never heard of them.  You can always ask them how many AN surgeries they have performed.  Hundreds is a good number.  Just to be sure.

3.5cm removed via translab by Schwartz and Slattery Nov 2013.  No complications.  Excellent result!!!

As my doctor put it make sure it is not their first rodeo and also ask if they are performing the surgery. Agree with the 100 or more number. 
Good Luck on your journey,
Dan
