Raphael, I think you are prob. close when you say they seem to not know what they are doing. I think they are really hard to get rid of. My surgeon put a stitch in mine and it healed a bit later. I now have stricture. I honestly don't know if they are related, but I know they all seem to not want to deal with the fistulas. I guess we just have to go with our guts and pick who you believe to know their stuff. Good luck with who you decide to go with. Keep us informed.
