Minimally Invasive Keyhole Surgery

Modern bowel surgery is often done using minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopic or robotic surgery. We also offer an Early Recovery After Surgery program (ERAS) that avoids long periods of fasting, offers smaller incisions, encourages early mobilization after surgery, and results in earlier return to work or recovery. These techniques have revolutionised the way surgeons perform and patients recover from bowel surgery. Our specialist surgeons will discuss your specific condition with you and provide evidence-based, personalised care using the latest technology.

Early Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) - our multimodal perioperative care pathway

Early Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols have been designed to help you recover quickly and safely after your surgery. We recognise having major bowel surgery can be anxiety provoking and hope these guidelines help you understand and set your own expectations for your peri-operative care. They are general in nature and modified as needed on a case-by-case basis to ensure you receive personalised care, underpinned by the latest evidence in colorectal surgery.
