Colorectal Surgery

at Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital

Colorectal Surgery

Colon and rectal surgeons at Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital specialize in disorders of the colon, rectum and anus. We provide expert diagnosis and treatment for all colorectal conditions, including cancer. We offer minimally invasive surgery approaches, including laparoscopic and robotic surgery that use smaller incisions and reduce recovery time and complications. Surgical care includes partial and total colectomies, sphincter-sparing procedures, transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEMS) and the latest approaches for common and complex colorectal conditions. Our surgeons help colorectal patients get better faster, with improved outcomes and fewer post-operative problems, by following evidence-based techniques, many of which were developed within the Brigham Health community.

We offer treatment options for conditions such as anal cancer, anal fissures, colon cancer, colon polyps, constipation, diverticulitis, fecal incontinence, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), hemorrhoids, rectal cancer and rectal prolapse.
