His clinical expertise includes minimally invasive and robotic-assisted procedures for a wide range of colorectal conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis), colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, and benign anorectal disorders. He has particular proficiency in restorative J-pouch creation for patients with ulcerative colitis, offering surgical solutions tailored to long-term quality of life.
Passionate about advancing the field, Dr. Khaitov is actively involved in clinical research with a primary focus on inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer.
