Why choose us?

The Advanced Colorectal Surgery (ACS) Unit at The Wellington Hospital offers a wide range of treatments for colorectal disease. In the UK, one in 25 cancers are colorectal and 70% are operable. As surgery becomes more advanced, so do the conditions we're able to treat. Offering a pioneering ‘two-surgeon approach’, you can benefit from the latest techniques and our world-class facilities, including intensive care units for patients after surgery (if needed). We offer both complex and conventional colorectal surgery including keyhole surgery, surgery for Crohn’s disease and diverticular disease surgery. We also offer new treatments, such as transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEMS) and TAMIS for early rectal cancers and advanced benign polyps, as well as robotic surgery — using the da Vinci robot. We're one of only two centres in the UK that do HIPEC surgery for colorectal peritoneal metastases.

Expertise

Every patient we treat is cared for by our multidisciplinary team. This team of experts meets regularly and brings together their knowledge of the latest treatments to make a decision about the best treatment plan for each patient.
