Treatment

WellStar's Gastrointestinal (GI) Cancer Conferences have helped WellStar build a global reputation as a preeminent center for the treatment of colon cancer. Your team of specialists in medical oncology, surgery, radiation oncology, radiology and pathology work together to assess your best course of colon cancer treatment, formulate a coordinated plan, stage the disease and design a personalized treatment plan consistent with the highest standards of care.


Colon Cancer Surgery

Surgical approaches for colon cancer include:


  • Colectomy Surgery
  • Palliative Surgery
  • Surgery for Liver and Lung Metastases

Which Approach is Right for You?

We understand the thought of surgery can be overwhelming. That's why your WellStar physician will help you decide the course of treatment that's right for you. He or she will help you weigh the benefits of each treatment approach and make an experienced recommendation for the best outcome. You can feel confident your decision will be based on both your input and the expertise and recommendations of your experienced physician.
