Colorectal Surgery
Innovative Treatments
At our facilities, our colorectal surgeons have treated patients of all ages who are experiencing serious health complications regarding their anus, rectum, or colon. From routine procedures to intensive, life-saving interventions, our facilities are equipped to offer the latest innovations in this field and provide the highest standards of care to our patients.
What We Treat
Colorectal surgery is most often a viable treatment option for patients who have exhausted other treatments for their medical issue. Our surgeons work closely with our oncology departments, urology departments, and other departments in order to provide comprehensive services for a wide-variety of different colorectal conditions.
Colorectal surgery is often used to treat:
- Hemorrhoids
- Colon cancer
- Crohn's disease
- Diverticular disease
- Fistula and fissures
- Ulcerative colitis
- Birth defects
- Incontinence
- Rectal prolapse
- Severe constipation issues
- Injuries
Common Procedures
After an extensive assessment from our doctors, a course of treatment will be developed for each patient. We give our patients access to some of the most effective and advanced surgical methods and technology being used in the field. Because of this, many of our patients benefit from minimally invasive surgeries, lower-risk procedures, and shorter recovery times.
Common colorectal surgical procedures include:
- Hemorrhoidectomy
- Polypectomy
- Colectomy
- Robotic surgery
- Laparoscopic surgery
- Transanal total mesorectal excision
- Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM)
- Strictureplasty
As part of plotting a course of patient treatment (including surgeries), our facilities also conduct various, trusted diagnostic procedures as well. These include colonoscopies, proctoscopies, sigmoidoscopies and other procedures.
