👋 Meet Ella.

When Ella was born in Tennessee, her parents knew something was wrong but no one had answers. After days in the NICU, they learned she had a rare condition called cloacal malformation, a complex diagnosis affecting the urinary, digestive, and reproductive systems.

Searching for hope, Ella’s family found Nationwide Children’s Center for Colore**al and Pelvic Reconstruction and Dr. Richard Wood. With a dedicated team of specialists in urology, gynecology, and colore**al surgery, Ella underwent a life-changing reconstructive surgery near her very first birthday.

Today, Ella is thriving. She’s healthy, happy, and full of laughter—and her family credits her care team for giving her the chance to grow and live life to the fullest!

Meet Malik!

Born in 2014, Malik’s mom realized a few days after birth that he had not yet had a wet diaper. Concerned, she spoke to his care team who confirmed that no wet diapers had been recorded during his stay. This began a series of tests which ultimately confirmed Malik’s diagnosis: Hirschsprung disease.

Following his diagnosis, Malik was immediately scheduled for surgery at just 4 days old. The procedure, known as a pull-thru, was successful and at one month old, he was discharged home from the NICU!

Following pelvic physical therapy and potty training, Malik was still having accidents and required daily re**al irrigations. His mom knew there had to be something else for him and discovered the Center for Colore**al and Pelvic Reconstruction here at Nationwide Children’s. Our team specializes in care for kids with Hirschsprung disease, like Malik.

Mom shared, “I reached out to Nationwide Children’s Hospital and little did I know that after the first intake phone call and speaking to Dr. Wood that Malik's life was going to change forever! Every staff member I spoke to had compassion and sincerity in their voice. It took about a year before I was able to meet everyone in person and it felt like we already knew each other.”

She continues, “The first day Malik and I met the team, I was able to have questions answered that hadn't been answered for the past ten years. Dr. Wood was amazing beyond words. He provided real facts and options to help us navigate the path that best fit Malik.”

After two weeks of the Bowel Management Program here at Nationwide Children’s, Malik returned to receive a Malone appendicostomy. This surgery makes a pathway from the belly button to the colon and is a successful treatment option for kids with chronic constipation. His mom shares that it has made a remarkable difference in his quality of life!

Malik recently started his second year of middle school. He is a straight A student and thriving!
