Thanks for posting the link.
Very well done seminar. I actually saw Dr. Shen a few days before the seminar for my scope and he told me about it. I actually understood quite a bit of the different talks. I guess having a pouch for 20 yrs and having been on almost every med (mentioned) for pouchitis gave me an advantage!! (not really an advantage I would choose)
Dr Shen is really amazing. He also told me how he gathered 37 GI docs to collaborate a document that insurance companies will use for prescribing and covering different drugs for IBD. Dr Shen is very happy at Columbia, since he said Cleveland Clinic was losing all his surgeons. (several are at Columbia, which is why he is there) He has gathered a wonderful team for scopes and his nurse, Abby even commutes from CLe. to NY. (twice a month)
If you have any questions about going to NY to see Dr. Shen, please post your questions.
