In 2005 I became very ill when a J-Pouch I had done at Lahey Clinic failed and Dr. Pricolo diagnosed the problem. He operated and essentially saved me. I was very week and very sick when he operated, but it was necessary or I am certain I would have become septic and probably not have made it. But, thanks to this wonderful doctor, I am here today and happy with the results. I have an ileostomy and find that it works great and allows me to eat just about all the foods I love. Thank you Dr. Pricolo for the years of life you gave me. My biggest regret is that he is no longer in Rhode Island. I keep you in my prayers.

Dr Pricolo gave me my life back. 23 years ago I was a 20 year old nursing student who had a total colectomy with ileostomy due to Ulcerative Colitis and Colon perforation. I was sent to Dr Pricolo for options to have my ileostomy reversed. So we decided the ileoanal anastmosis with Jpouch was my best option. I went for it and it was the best decision we made. I am 23 years post Jpouch and doing fantastic. I am healthy, I have been a nurse for 21 years, I have a 13 year old son and wonderful husband. Dr Pricolo was so calming and truly the best surgeon. Thank you so much for listening to me and recommending the best option for me. He is the best! #23yearoldjpouch

Dr. Victor Pricolo is "bar none" the BEST surgeon! His concern and desire to make you feel comfortable with whatever he has to do to correct your problem is incredible. I couldn't have asked for a better doctor, and now a friend. Gli angeli hanno ali per volare ma alcune volte non ne hanno... ed è allora che li chiamiamo amici. Mille grazie!
