North Arundel Hospital has named Dr. Robin M. Ulanow, an assistant clinical professor of surgery at George Washington Medical Center, as chief of colon and rectal surgery.
Noting that colon and rectal cancer has become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Maryland, the hospital said Ulanow will focus on promoting early detection.
Her goals in leading an expanded Colon and Rectal Surgery Department at North Arundel also include advancing surgical techniques and increasing the use of minimally invasive and laparoscopic procedures, the hospital said.
