ABOUT US

In 1995, after a long battle with Crohn’s Disease, Kerry Gallo underwent surgery leaving him with a permanent ileostomy. After recovery, Kerry searched for a product that would support his pouch in a way that would allow him to return to his active lifestyle. Frustrated with the lack of product availability, Kerry created and patented The Pouch Support System.

In 2006, Kerry partnered with Paige Fortner to form, “Apparel Med”. With several patent pending improvements to the original design as well as recently receiving Medicare approval, Apparel Med is proud to present: The Phoenix Ostomy Support System. The new and improved system is in full production and being sold worldwide via the internet.
