Treatment & Procedures

Advanced robotic and minimally invasive surgery for diseases of the colon, rectum, and anus — plus sacral nerve stimulation for fecal incontinence.

Dr. Dattani provides comprehensive surgical care for colorectal conditions, from common anorectal problems to complex cancer and IBD. Every plan is tailored to the patient, with an emphasis on minimally invasive techniques whenever appropriate.

Only in Idaho

Natural Orifice Extraction (NOSE)

Diseased colon removed through a natural orifice in select patients — no large abdominal incision. Less pain, faster recovery.

First in Idaho

Robotic TAMIS

Robotic Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery for large polyps and early rectal tumors — organ-preserving when appropriate.

Advanced Therapy

Sacral Nerve Stimulation

Implantable neuromodulation for fecal incontinence when conservative care isn’t enough — proven to improve control and quality of life.

Fecal Incontinence & Sacral Nerve Stimulation

If you’ve struggled with bowel control and other treatments haven’t worked, sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) may help. A small device modulates the nerves that control the bowel and pelvic floor. Dr. Dattani evaluates candidates and offers this therapy as part of comprehensive pelvic floor care.

Conditions We Treat

From routine to complex — expert care across the full spectrum of colorectal disease.

🎗️

Colon & Rectal Cancer

Approximately 600 new cases are diagnosed each year in Idaho. Dr. Dattani is the highest-volume robotic colorectal surgeon in the state, focusing on minimally invasive surgery, excellent oncologic outcomes, and early return to daily life. For select rectal cancer patients, watch-and-wait (organ preservation) may be an option when a complete response to treatment is achieved.

⚡

Diverticulitis

When diverticula become inflamed or infected, symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe complications. Dr. Dattani specializes in minimally invasive surgical treatment and has published a peer-reviewed Rapid Review on diverticular disease in American Family Physician.

🩺

Inflammatory Bowel Disease

One of the few surgeons in Idaho specializing in surgical management of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Offers robotic approaches, including J-pouch (ileal pouch-anal anastomosis) for ulcerative colitis, with long-term follow-up to optimize function.

🔌

Fecal Incontinence & Sacral Nerve Stimulation

Evaluation and treatment of bowel control problems, including sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) — an implantable therapy that can significantly improve continence when medications and other measures aren’t enough.

🔹

Hemorrhoids & Anorectal Disease

Hemorrhoids, anal fissures, fistulas, abscesses, and related conditions. Treatment is matched to severity — from office-based options to surgery when needed.

⚖️

Pelvic Floor & Rectal Prolapse

Surgical treatment of rectal prolapse and other pelvic floor disorders, coordinated with continence care including sacral nerve stimulation when appropriate.

🎯

Advanced Polyp Removal (TAMIS)

Robotic Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery for large polyps and early rectal tumors. First in Idaho to perform Robotic TAMIS.

🔬

Anal Cancer & HPV-Related Disease

Comprehensive evaluation and surgical treatment for anal cancer and high-risk HPV-related lesions.

📋

Neuroendocrine, GIST & Uncommon Tumors

Care for less common tumors including neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), desmoid tumors, and appendix neoplasms.

✨

Natural Orifice Extraction (NOSE)

In select patients, the specimen is removed through a natural orifice rather than a large abdominal incision — reducing pain and improving recovery and cosmetic results. Discussed preoperatively when appropriate.
