Not in NYC, but Tracy Hull at Cleveland Clinic is great. She's not only a top-rate surgeon, but a wonderful person. You can look her up on CC's website and listen to her philosophy re working with female patients in particular. She worked with me on fistulas, abscesses, disconnection, removal. But wherever you choose to go, best of luck to you!
I’m sorry you had to have the pouch removed and thank you for answering
Feza Remzi is at NYU Langone now, He did my k-pouch when he was at the Cleveland Clinic. He's a great surgeon and very compassionate.
Thank you
Ravi Kiran. He was at the Cleveland Clinic & is now at Columbia. He's an expert at k-Pouch construction as well as J-Pouch & revisions. I was referred to him by another Cleveland Clinic alum. I also considered Dr. Hull. I've seen her lecture a few times and she is impressive.
I had a great 2- part surgery with Dr. Kiran. One of the many benefits of Columbia is that when I started with floppy pouch issues, I was quickly set up under the care of Dr Shen.
Associated Colon and Rectal Surgeons - Bertram Chinn's group in Union County NJ. Mine was done with Dr. Suraj Alva who is a part of his group.
