The Department of Colorectal
Surgery at
The Cleveland Clinic Foundation tells me they are one of the largest

Presbyterian Medical Center. It's the

Web. They have a number of links to sources of information about GI
conditions and diseases, as well as information about their institution

- Not for the sqeamish,
www-medlib.med.utah.edu
has something called the
Gastrointestinal Pathology Index,
which is a list of graphics showing
all the kinds of things that can go wrong with your gut, including our
faves, CD and UC. If you thought the pics from my colonoscopy were gross,
stay away from these. At least my gut looks healthy these days.
