The colorectal surgery department at Frimley Health works to provide high level effective care, with cutting edge technology and evidence-based therapies.
We screen, diagnose and treat patients with cancers of the colon and rectum, and have an established enhanced recovery programme. Expertise in robotic surgery allows us to perform more accurate pelvic surgery for cancers of the rectum.
We work with our colleagues in radiology, gastroenterology, stoma care and tissue viability to provide patient-centred diagnostic pathways and tailored care. This is particularly important when it comes to the surgical management of inflammatory bowel disease, pouch surgery, and chronic bowel conditions.
We can offer specialist anal fistula services and treatments, and we have specialists with interests in sphincter preserving techniques and procedures.
We offer surgery for pilonidal sinus, and are pioneering minimally invasive treatments, such as laser ablation and video-assisted endoscopic treatments.
We have specialists in complex hernia repair and complex abdominal wall reconstruction, supported by a complex abdominal wall reconstruction multi-disciplinary team.
