The mission of the USC Colorectal Surgery Program is to offer innovative treatments and compassionate care. We treat every type of colorectal disease, including inflammatory bowel disease (such as Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis) and colon and rectal cancer. We help manage malignant and benign diseases from colon polyps to anal cancer in a friendly, private setting.
