About
Ian Geh is a leading colorectal surgeon whose work has profoundly shaped the modern management of colorectal cancer. His key research areas include the surgical and multidisciplinary treatment of colon, rectal, and anal cancers, with a particular focus on optimizing clinical guidelines and patient outcomes. Dr. Geh’s most notable contribution is his co-authorship of the landmark "Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain & Ireland (ACPGBI): Guidelines for the Management of Cancer of the Colon, Rectum and Anus (2017) – Surgical Management," a highly cited work (52 citations) that provides evidence-based standards for surgical practice. This guideline, building on the Department of Health’s "2-week rule" for suspected cancer referrals, has been instrumental in improving early detection and streamlining care pathways. By advocating for high-volume, specialist-led units, Dr. Geh has helped drive national improvements in survival rates and quality of life for patients. His work is essential reading for trainees and researchers seeking to understand the evolution of colorectal cancer surgery and the critical role of clinical guidelines in translating research into practice.
