Treatments You Can Live With

At TCRS, we are committed to providing treatment options that best fit your needs. Our specialists are prepared to discuss options, answer questions and help you make an informed decision about the most appropriate treatment plan.

The best way to prepare for any treatment is to understand why it is necessary and what to expect before, during and after the procedure. We encourage you to talk to one of our specialists about the various treatment options that will get you back to what’s important in your life.

Regardless of the treatment plan that you and your TCRS physician determine to be the best for you, rest assured that TCRS physicians’ dedication to utilizing innovative techniques and procedures will provide you access to the latest and most up-to-date colorectal care available.

Common Conditions Treated

Non-surgical Diet and Lifestyle Changes. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important to your overall well-being. Regular exercise, a low-fat, high-fiber diet and reduced alcohol consumption can be the first steps toward prevention or treatment for several colorectal disorders.

In-office Procedures. Frequently, treatments can be performed in the physician’s office. With most in-office procedures, you will be on your way and within a few hours, back to your regular routine.

Using the Latest Technologies

Using the latest technologies, our skilled surgeons perform thousands of diagnostic and surgical colorectal procedures each year. Treatment options are as specialized as our patients. Our areas of expertise include advanced laparoscopic techniques in colon resection, stapled transanal rectal resection, transanal endoscopic microsurgery, and high resolution colonoscopy, to name a few.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

Many colorectal conditions are successfully treated with lifestyle changes or medications and frequently that is all that is needed to successfully treat your condition. But in other circumstances, surgery may be required. At TCRS, we are experts at diagnosing, treating and determining if surgery is the best solution for you.

Our surgeons have achieved national recognition for technical innovation in minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopic surgery of the colon and rectum. A large part of our commitment to excellence is our use of the most advanced diagnostic and surgical techniques available.

The benefits to our patients are many, including:

Reduced pain and discomfort
A shorter hospital stay
Quicker recovery and an earlier return to everyday activities
Less scarring at the surgical site
More cost-effective with shorter hospital stays and reduced disruptions to the patient's life and work
