Colon Cancer

UCSF colorectal surgeons have decades of experience and expertise in the most challenging and complex cases. We are a high volume referral center for the region and routinely handle cases that other institutions turn away either because of their rarity or because the patients suffer from multiple condtions making care technically challenging.

High Performing Indicator ColoncancerUCSF Medical Center earned a “high performance” rating – the highest rating possible – for colon cancer surgery from U.S. News.
