Fistulafree.net was born from Julie Rogers’ own experience and her desire to help others facing the challenges of living with a fistula. After fourteen years of a complex fistula casting a shadow over her life, Julie found her solution at the Healing Hands Clinic in Pune, India, in 2022.

Throughout this time, Julie tirelessly explored every possible treatment option, including biologics, setons, hyperbaric treatment, stem-cell therapy, and naturopathic approaches. On top of that, she had been living with Crohn’s Disease for over 30 years, which involved a colectomy and J-pouch creation.

Today, fistula-free and empowered by her own healing journey, Julie is dedicated to supporting others on their path to recovery. Her relentless pursuit of a solution and refusal to give up led her to Dr. Porwal and the Healing Hands Clinic. Witnessing the struggle of others with this condition, she knew she could not stay silent. She now dedicates her time to helping others reclaim their lives.
