COLORECTAL CANCERTreatment in the Atlanta Area

Cancer that begins in the colon is called colon cancer, and cancer that begins in the rectum is called rectal cancer. Cancer that starts in either of these organs may also be called colorectal cancer.

This type of cancer is quite common in the United States among both men and women. And like most types of cancer, it’s highly treatable if found early.

If you have been recently diagnosed with colon or rectal cancer, you probably have a lot of questions that need to be answered before making important decisions. As you consider your treatment options, take some time to learn about what you can expect during your treatment process, the types of doctors you'll visit with, and common questions that many patients have as a part of understanding their diagnosis, treatment options, and prognosis.
