She performs all advanced procedures in the colon and rectal surgery including the treatment of hemorrhoids, fistulas, colon and rectal cancer, Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis, diverticulitis, pilonidal disease, colon polyps, rectocele, and other pelvic floor disorders.

 

“I believe in treating each patient as a unique individual, always with respect and compassion. I strive to provide the best possible outcome for each patient I treat” expressed Dr. Bahna.

 

The doctor has a special interest in the integrated comprehensive multidisciplinary care of patients with colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel disease. She utilizes minimally invasive techniques including advanced colonoscopy, transanal surgery, robotic, and laparoscopic surgery. She is also a champion of Enhanced Surgical Recovery pathways which promote early postoperative feeding, improve outcomes, decrease postoperative pain and narcotic use, and minimize hospital stay.

 

Academically, Dr. Bahna completed her undergraduate education at the University of Miami as a Dean's Scholar and obtained her medical degree from New York Medical College. She completed her residency in general surgery at Temple University in Philadelphia, followed by a fellowship in minimally invasive surgery and colon and rectal surgery at the Orlando Health Colon and Rectal Clinic.

 

As a testament to her continued education, the doctor is board-certified in colon & rectal surgery and general surgery by the American Board of Surgery (ABS). The ABS is an independent, non-profit organization located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, founded for the purpose of certifying surgeons who have met a defined standard of education, training, and knowledge.

 

Maintaining fellowship status, she is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), and a Fellow of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons (FASCRS).

 

In her professional experience, Dr. Bahna has been practicing in South Florida since 2011, initially as full-time faculty at the University of Miami where she served as the Associate Program Director for the Colorectal Surgery Fellowship Program. She joined Palm Beach Colorectal Surgery in 2018 where she has elevated the subspecialty care of colorectal patients in the community, in addition to her role as Program Director for the University of Miami / JFK Surgical Residency.

 

Colorectal surgery is a field in medicine dealing with disorders of the rectum, anus, and colon. The field is also known as proctology, but this term is now used infrequently within medicine and is most often employed to identify practices relating to the anus and rectum in particular. A colorectal surgeon is a physician who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of anorectal and colorectal conditions (conditions of the colon, rectum, and anus).

On a more personal note, she is fluent in English and Arabic.
