Patient Reviews
Jan 13, 2023
I had an ileostomy for 9 yrs. When I consulted with Dr. Stanten before surgery he explained due to some issues I had it may be difficult. However , he confidently let me know he was able to do it. After the consultation I was 100% sure everything would be fine. Sure enough I'm going on 2yrs with no complications. I am forever grateful because he gave me my life back and I now can do things I could not do before with my ileostomy. This operation meant the world to me & Dr. Stanten made it happen. Thank you again.
