Just posted urgent message to everyone in K-pouch group urgently asking for info on Dr Dietz in Cleveland. Did he do your K-pouch? Do you still see him?


I have a 19 year old K-pouch that needs work but I need to know whether I can trust Dr Dietz or should I look elsewhere.


Any info you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Reply as Private Message if appropriate.

Updated after contacting surgeons:

Quality Life Association has two surgeons listed in Melbourne, Australia.

Mr Philip Smart

https://www.drphilsmart.com

Email from surgeon states: Can help patients who already have a continent ostomy, but does not create them at time of enquiring (2023).

Mr Satish Warrier

(Note: His name is spelled incorrectly as “Warriner” on the QLA website. It’s definitely “Warrier”.)

Waiting to hear back

(The QLA list includes surgeons who will treat patients who need help with a continent ostomy, but don’t actually create them, so being on the list doesn’t necessarily mean they do the initial surgery.)
