A member asked:
Does it matter where i get my colorectal surgery done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That depends: On your condition requiring surgery and the particular surgery you are considering. Generally, the everyday colorectal surgery can be successfully performed by your colon and rectal surgery at the facility where they normally operate.
