Does anyone know of surgeons in Australia who do Koch pouches. I need a repair and am seeing Professor Bokey in Sydney. Are there any others? Has anyone had surgery by him.

Hi Kelly

I would suggest you contact the Ostomy Association in Sydney - they may have a list of surgeons for you or, failing that, have a look at http://www.cssa.org.au/ which is the site for the Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia and New Zealand. There's info on there about who to contact in various hospitals to find out if anyone there does the op.

Good luck.
