Colon Rectal Surgery
Advanced Minimally Invasive Procedure

Advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques and sphincter preservation surgery are the rule and not the exception. Muhlenberg's Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery offers a nationally recognized teaching program for surgeons seeking this specialty and is the only program of this type in New Jersey.
