Who does the most j-pouch surgeries in Chicagoland

bluemusic4usMember

I'm looking for a hospital/doctor that has done lots of j-pouch surguries. U of C? Northwestern? I've had some problems and am a year out from my first surgery, waiting for my second. Does anyone know of a doctor that is really experienced in these? Thanks.

U of C has Dr. Fichera and Dr.Herst. They both specialize in this. Northwestern has Dr.Styrker (he was mine) he's been doing this for 30 years. They're all very experienced and reputable colorectal surgeons. You can set up consults at both places and see who's the right fit for you. Good luck

A three hour drive away at the UW-Hospital in Madison WI there is a Dr. Harms who is a great surgeon and recently did mine. He has done hundreds of specifically J-pouch surgeries and learned from the original surgeons in Britain.
