@dealco, I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your trusted surgeon. I understand that you are looking for a new surgeon for valve reconstruction of your K-Pouch or continent ileostomy. Are you looking for a surgeon locally? If yes, what state do you live in? Or might travel to Mayo Clinic be a possibility for you?

May I ask what led to your needing an ileostomy?
