Timothy Feldmann, MD, FACS, FASCRS
Timothy Feldmann, MD, is a board-certified colon and rectal surgeon. He treats conditions such as colon and rectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, rectal prolapse, pelvic floor disorders, parastomal hernia, ostomy closure and anorectal disease (hemorrhoids, fissure, fistula, etc.). Dr. Feldmann is trained in all robotic, laparoscopic and open surgical techniques including the use of transanal minimally invasive surgery. He uses minimally invasive surgical techniques whenever possible to enhance his patients' recovery after surgery. Dr. Feldmann believes that patients should have access to specialized surgical care close to home. He understands that being near the support of friends and family while being treated makes difficult times easier. In this free time he enjoys reading, skiing, biking and spending time with his family.

I believe in listening to my patients to understand the concerns that they bring. Many people have difficultly discussing topics in this field and I want to make sure that they can be heard and feel comfortable in expressing their symptoms. After I discuss treatment options, my patients are included in the decision making process to help achieve the desired outcome.
