Who We Are
Our Physicians
All of our physicians are double board certified in the fields of colon and rectal surgery, as well as general surgery.
A team approach to patient care means that patients have access to a surgeon during normal work hours, evenings and weekends. This also means that a specialist is always on call to meet your needs.
Our History
Our practice was founded in 1986 by the late Dr. Leela Prasad, a pioneer in complex colorectal surgery in the Chicago area and, later, in the robotics in the colorectal field. Today our group is proud to serve patients throughout Chicagoland, Northern Illinois, Northern Indiana and Southern Wisconsin. Our physicians are widely respected by colleagues in their field locally, as well as at the national and international levels. In addition, all three physicians proudly hold academic positions at major Chicago universities.
Our Mission
We strive to offer a comprehensive range of colon, rectal, and anal surgery services and the highest level of medical care by combining surgical expertise with state-of-the-art technologies. Using a patient-centered, compassionate approach to care, we address the individual needs and demands of each patient.
We value your time. It is our privilege to take care of you.
