Can anyone who has had the K Pouch procedure done at the Cleveland Clinic recommend one of the 3 surgeons? How was your experience at the Hospital? Thank you.

dietz is the k pouch guy. as i understand it he is the only one who does them there. the other is now in nyc. there are more than 20 cr surgeons on staff.

had a good experience. there were some problems, but not associated with the surgery or the K. the ostomy nurses are fantastic and have provided me with great phone support. i go back on thurs so will know more then.
