Indiana Pouch - Cleveland Clinic

Post by Lynne »

Has anyone here had an Indiana Pouch done at Cleveland Clinic, or know anything about the doctors there who do them ? We've had lots of good info about Koch Pouches and J-Pouches done there, but nothing about Indiana Pouches.

I've got a patient looking for some information and have already tried to check with my "normal" resources.

Please reply, PM me or email me - I greatly appreciate any help you can give.

Lynne,
When I was at CC in Florida, one of my nurses had the Indiana Pouch done at that facility.
If you introduced yourself as a representative of the CDN wanting information..maybe someone would be helpful in gathering info at CC/Cleveland.

indiana pouch - cleveland clinic

Post by liblet68 »

I have an indiana pouch and the surgery was performed at Ohio State Medical Center, James Cancer Center. by Dr. Michael Gong. He did my surgery in January but took a position at the Cleveland Clinic in February. He is great. I couldn't have been more pleased with his care and treatment.
