Colorectal Surgery
Surgeons at Jefferson Memorial Hospital offer colon and rectal surgery, including minimally invasive techniques, to treat colorectal conditions. Minimally invasive surgery may offer smaller incisions, less pain and a quicker recovery.
The surgeons work closely with gastroenterologists and other specialists to provide supportive care for conditions such as:
-
Colon and rectal cancer
-
Colon motility problems, such as chronic constipation and bowel incontinence
-
Diverticular disease
-
Hemorrhoids, fissure and fistula
-
Inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis
-
Polyps
