Stars: AEEP ranks providers in five key areas and assigns stars accordingly. An endo doctor receives one star per each of these that are made evident:
- excises endo with wide margins *
- majority of patients have endo *
- keeps post-surgical outcome statistics *
- published/ presented work, peer-reviewed *
- usually avoids GnRH agonists *
These criteria are based on our own experiences and research. Our goal is to maximize the chances of restored functionality. Talk to your doctor to see what treatment is right for you.

Philosophy: “I was one of the original gynecologists recommending and performing excision – along with Harry Reich and others. We all “learned together” and I have done clinical research for 30 years, often involving medical and surgical treatment of endometriosis and postoperative pelvic adhesions. We have two boarded urogynecologists in my group, along with Physical Therapists experienced in pelvic floor therapy. We treat patients on a very individualized basis, every situation is different and requires a different approach.” Able to operate on DIE, bowel and lung endo. Takes all insurance.

“Dr. Arrington is recognized as a regional and national expert in advanced excision of endometriosis. Since his fellowship training, he has continued to challenge his knowledge and surgical skills to help patients with “hopeless” cases of endometriosis. By caring for patients with this disease, he and his staff understand what you have been through. They understand the frustration, hopelessness and fear that so many endometriosis patients have experienced and are prepared to help.” – endowest.net
“I am Polish, but I have lived in US longer than any other country. I did my residency in Ob/Gyn at Cook County Hospital in Chicago and fellowship in gynecologic surgery at Mayo Clinic Scottsdale. I am a single dad with two teenagers – 13 and 15. As I always say – my favorite things in life start with letter S – surgery, skiing, sailing my son and his sister (my daughter)… As far as languages I speak Polish and some French and understand some Spanish and several Slavic languages (Czech, Slovak, Russian).” -Dr. Hibner, AEEP Questionnaire
