Im looking into retiring. Where is the best city with good GI doctors to start? Looking for a active community. My GI mentioned the Jacksonville area Mayo but not too many places near there. If nothing else, near a major airport so I can get back quickly to NYC. I do need a infusion center knowledgeable of these bio drugs at least.
Thanks

I am in Naples. My GI knows about pouches and they even have a research dept that tries new drugs for Chrons (which hopefully we don’t need) also there is an infusion center that does biologics. We are 1& 1/2 hours from Cleveland clinic in Weston, where I have gone for scopes. They also do jpouches in Weston. jet blue flies direct to NYC from Ft Myers.
We are much warmer then Jacksonville in the winter. The doctor is Raymond Phillips in Naples, if you want to look him up.
Thank you I will.
Dr John Monson in Orlando. Saved my life.
Oh thanks Kisamee is on my top list. Is it safe there?
Can I find out the doctor in Naples (I moved to Naples 4 years ago)?
I moved to Leesburg 3 years ago and have a doctor in Orlando. His name is Dr. Nesef. I found him to be a good doctor. Good luck
Thank you
Hi everyone!
I live in Sarasota, FL (south of Tampa) and I’m willing to switch my GI doctor because the current one is always so busy and I think I’m in the bottom of his patients list. I’m never able to reach him when I need him. His initials are B.M. (I don’t want to give his full name because it is not my intention to destroy anybody’s reputation). Does anybody knows any doctor in the Tampa, Bradenton, Sarasota, Venice, Fort Myers area I can look for? Any help means the world to me. I have a JPouch since 2014 and lots of issues, so I need a very reliable and professional doctor.
Thank you in advance for any ideas,
Lauri
Can anyone recommend a good gastro doc in the Fort Lauderdale area? Please leave out Cleveland Clinic in Weston. I’ve had it with them
Dr Anthony Brannan in Tampa is one of the better Jpouch doctors in the area, I believe he is still working out of the St. Joseph hospital system. Probably the best in the state is Dr Wexner out of the Cleveland Clinic in Weston FL.
I have had great experiences with both.
good luck!
Thank you so much for the info Michael. I’ll look up for Dr.Brannan ASAP. I really appreciate I have an alternative instead of going to Cleveland Clinic Weston (3.5 hours driving) for every little issue.
Thanks again!
Laurita
