Reply to "Need details of expert j pouch surgeons in india/uk/Ireland /US"

Although I didn’t have any of my 4 bowel surgeries at Yale, I did have my cancer surgery there, and have heard great things about Dr. Reddy although he wasn’t my Pouch surgeon. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him based on feedback I have gotten on him (I live in the New Haven area).  I got very good care at Yale New Haven Health, for thyroid cancer. 

Also very good is Dr. Steven Gorfine of Manhattan Surgical Associates/Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, who performed or assisted on all 4 of my bowel surgeries. He is now at an age where he may be focusing more on teaching at the medical school than performing surgery, although I am speculating and don’t know that for a fact. He is as experienced as any Pouch surgeon in New York City. He has probably done as many J Pouches as anyone - been doing them since the 1980s when the surgery started in mass.
