The Galveston Bay Area has lacked the expertise of a surgeon certified by the American Board of Colon & Rectal Surgery.

Our ColoRectal Service has been developed in response to an increasing public need for information, support and treatment in a subspecialty of surgery that is not conveniently available to most communities.

We treat patients with disorders of the anus, rectum, colon and small bowel including:

• Anorectal problems including Abscess, Fistulae, Fissures, Hemorrhoids (Piles) and Warts (Condyloma)
•  
• Repair of complex problems/complications resulting from earlier ano/rectal surgery
•  
• Colon/Rectal Cancer screening using Colonoscopy, Fecal Occult Blood Test (checking for hidden blood in the stool) and advanced radiological imaging
•  
• Large Bowel (Colon/Rectal) Cancer surgery, including both advanced tumors and pre-malignant lesions such as polyps

• Female perineal conditions such as Bowel Incontinence, Rectal Prolapse and Rectocele
•  
• Non-malignant disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Diverticular Disease, Diarrhea and Constipation
•  
• Complex nutritional problems including Intestinal Fistula resulting in feces coming out from the vagina, bladder and abdominal wall
