Dr. Yudina specializes primarily in abdominal surgery, with a focus on minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques, including diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopies and, her passion, colorectal surgery.

She treats colon and rectal cancers, complicated diverticuloses, anorectal disorders (hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anal abscess, anal warts), pilonidal disease, hernias, benign gallbladder disease, skin lesions, soft tissue masses, appendicitis, disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and other general surgical needs.

“Being a surgeon with great interest in colorectal surgery allows me to impact the lives of people suffering from conditions that are oftentimes difficult to discuss, and allows me to interact with patients from a variety of ages and backgrounds,” explains Dr. Yudina. “Cancer and inflammatory bowel disease are extremely challenging adversaries, but nothing is more gratifying to be able to say to a patient, ‘Your cancer is gone.’”

At URMC, we believe that patients should be empowered to make the right decisions regarding their personal healthcare. To do so, transparency is critical. URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website. This will help you make better-informed choices about how and with whom you seek care. Click here to learn more about the surveys used to generate this vital information.
