Care Philosophy: Giovanni Bonomo, MD, is the director of colorectal surgery at Staten Island University Hospital and the only board-certified colorectal surgeon on Staten Island. He specializes in treating a wide variety of diseases that affect the colon, rectum and anus including hemorrhoids, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, appendiceal and presacral masses, rectal prolapse and cancer. A native Staten Islander, Dr. Bonomo has always felt a fondness for his community and a strong desire to give back. ``My goal is to provide the most advanced and highly effective treatments available today, so my patients can get the best care, right where they live,`` he says. More than 90% of Dr. Bonomo's cases are performed with minimally invasive techniques, which result in reduced pain and scarring, and offer quicker recovery than traditional open surgery.Patients choose Dr. Bonomo for his knowledge, compassion and personalized treatment plans. Under his leadership at Staten Island University Hospital, he developed the Advanced Colorectal Care Pathway-a unique program that ensures streamlined coordination at every touch point of care. ``Our specially trained nurse navigators are here to help with scheduling appointments and answering questions along the way,`` he says. ``This allows patients to focus exclusively on getting well, so they can return to their normal lives as quickly and safely as possible.`` Before joining Northwell in 2019, Dr. Bonomo graduated from the State University of New York at Stony Brook School of Medicine. He went on to complete his residency at Mount Sinai Beth Israel/Petrie Division and fellowship at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. He currently serves as assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, frequently training other surgeons on best practices and techniques in minimally invasive and robotic surgery.``Colorectal cancer is the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, but it's entirely treatable if detected early,`` he says. ``Helping my patients beat this disease and giving them a chance for a healthier future is all I could ever ask for as a surgeon.``
