A wide variety of conditions that affect the digestive tract – including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, rectum, pancreas and liver – may be addressed via advanced surgical interventions that your general surgeon or gastroenterologist can discuss with you. A small sampling of procedures in which our physicians specialize includes the repair of primary, recurrent and complex abdominal wall hernias; surgery to address acid reflux/GERD, swallowing disorders (achalasia) and hiatal hernias; weight-loss surgeries such as gastric bypass and gastric banding procedures; gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy) and surgical interventions for pancreatic and hepatobiliary disorders; surgery to address colon and rectal cancers; surgical interventions for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis; surgery to mitigate anorectal diseases including rectal prolapse and incontinence; and surgery to address enterocutaneous fistula and short bowel syndrome. In many cases, minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgical approaches are employed in these surgeries with the goal of reducing the patient’s pain, recovery time and potential for post-operative complications.
