The focus of our seven
surgeons is to provide up-to-the-minute care in all aspects of colon
and rectal surgery, with particular interests in colon and rectal
cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and benign anorectal disorders.
Washington University colorectal surgeons have special expertise
in laparoscopic colon surgery, offering this treatment for colon
and rectal cancer, diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease,
colon polyps, rectal prolapse and chronic constipation.
Working as part of a leading
academic medical center, an integrated team of colon and rectal
surgeons, gastroenterologists, oncologists and radiologists works
together to provide the best possible care for patients in the St.
Louis region and beyond.
