Sharon L. Stein, MD, is an Assistant Professor of Surgery at Weill Cornell Medical Center and an Assistant Attending Surgeon at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell Medical Center. She has a strong expertise in laparoscopic colon and rectal surgery. Dr. Stein specializes in women's issues in colorectal disease, including fertility in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Dr. Stein, along with other faculty members from colorectal division at Weill Cornell, have developed a less invasive surgical technique which removes colon and rectal polyps not amenable for endoscopic removal, while avoiding bowel resection. Our center is one of the two institutions in the U.S., which routinely performs this technique.

Dr. Stein's clinical expertise include minimally invasive treatment of a wide variety of colon and rectal diseases, such as colon and rectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), diverticular disease, and rectal prolapse. She also treats benign conditions of the anus and fecal incontinence.

Prior to joining the faculty at Weill Cornell Medical College, Dr. Stein spent three months with Doctors Without Borders performing surgery in South Sudan. Sharon Stein earned her Medical Degree from the University of Colorado in 2001. She did her internship and residency at Massachusetts General Hospital, and her fellowship in colon and rectal surgery at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
