What is a Colore**al Surgeon?

Colore**al surgeons are experts in the surgical and non-surgical treatment of diseases of the colon, re**um and a**s. They have completed advanced surgical training in the treatment of these diseases as well as full general surgical training.

Board-certified colon and re**al surgeons complete residencies in general surgery and colon and re**al surgery, and pass intensive examinations conducted by the Philippine Board of Surgery ( PBS) and the Philippine Board of Colon and Re**al Surgery (PBCRS). They are well-versed in the treatment of both benign and malignant diseases of the colon, re**um and a**s and are able to perform routine screening examinations and surgically treat conditions if indicated to do so.
