Diana Ziser Rego is a nurse practitioner who cares for patients having colorectal surgery. Her expertise includes providing care both before and after surgery, as well as managing various colorectal conditions. Her areas of special interest include care for disorders of the anus, rectum and colon, including cancers; surgical treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); and coordinating care from a multidisciplinary team for surgical patients with complex needs.
