About
Clifton Cox
Why did you choose to specialize in Colorectal surgery?
I recognized that the application of skill, effort, and technology could significantly impact patient well-being, whether it be a life-threatening problem such as colon cancer, or a quality of life threatening problem such as hemorrhoids.
Do you have a specialty of interest?
We have been fortunate to be able to see the full spectrum of colorectal disorders, but areas of special interest would include minimally invasive colon and rectal cancer surgery, non-operative treatment of hemorrhoids, and pelvic floor disorders such as prolapse or incontinence.
