Dr. Lindsay A. Strader | Colon-Rectal Surgeon | Wichita Surgical Specialists

Lindsay A. Strader, DO, FACS, is a colon and rectal surgeon with Wichita Surgical Specialists.
"My name is Lindsey Strader and I'm a colon and rectal surgeon with Wichita Surgical Specialists.
Why I became a colon-rectal surgeon is one of the most common questions I get it, whether it's from a patient or at a cocktail party trying to describe my profession, I get a lot of questions for it so. I think Colon and Rectal Surgery is unique because you're able to have an expertise in the GI tract and in a specific area but you still have such a variety of patients and cases.
I do a lot of smaller cases such as treating hemorrhoids and fissures and fistulas and that brings a lot of relief to people but I also do a lot of larger surgeries like colon and rectal resections for cancer or inflammatory bowel disease, and that also is very important to patients. I think being able to prevent and cure colon cancer is one of the biggest privileges I have.
If I wasn't a surgeon, I would probably be a travel blogger or some type of a reviewer and would spend my life traveling around and evaluating hotels and fabulous restaurants and seeing the world.
Outside of medicine I do really enjoy traveling. My fiancé and I travel quite a bit. Other than that, we like to spend time with our three dogs and we tend to try out the new restaurant or local brewery in town.
We really enjoy being active in Wichita we participate in a lot of 5 K's and a lot of bike rides. We like to bike around College Hill and the downtown area especially in the new bike paths. And we are very close to our families so we tend to spend Sunday nights with family dinner."
