Andrew Morris, M.D.

I am a board-certified general surgeon with specialized training in colon and rectal surgery. I have specific interests in treating colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and benign anorectal disorders. My goal is to provide the highest quality care with compassionate patient interactions. I understand that anorectal disorders are a sensitive topic and try to approach these with respect. By incorporating advanced surgical techniques, up-to-date research and open patient communication, we can develop patient-centered care plans that fit your treatment goals.

I was born and raised in the Midwest, and lived for a few years in the Coulee Region during my childhood. I completed my surgical training in southeastern U.S. before deciding to return to the Midwest. My extended family has lived in the Coulee Region for over 100 years. I feel privileged to return to this community that has been home to raise my own family. In my leisure time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son, exploring the surrounding area, attending local festivals and playing golf.
