Minimally invasive cancer treatment
Colon cancer may be curable when detected early
We offer advanced minimally invasive technology with excellent cancer outcomes, safety, fewer complications and fast recovery: robotic surgery, transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS) and laparoscopy.
Learn about TAMISWhen to seek immediate medical attention
Seek prompt care for severe abdominal pain with distension, persistent vomiting or difficulty passing gas or stool
These symptoms may require urgent attention. Do not wait for an administrative WhatsApp reply if symptoms are severe or rapidly worsening.
Signs worth reviewing
Bowel changes or bleeding do not confirm cancer but warrant evaluation
Blood in stool, persistent bowel changes, abdominal pain or discomfort, unexplained weight loss or fatigue also occur in conditions other than cancer. Assessment identifies what information needs review.
Some people have no clear early symptoms. An abnormal result, family history or report needing explanation also warrants consultation.

Test, pathology or previous procedure reports
Bring them if available so the doctor can review existing information without repeating previous work.
Current treatment or medication information
