About

Titilayo Adegboyega

Titilayo Adegboyega, MD, is the chief of colorectal surgery at South Shore University Hospital. A board-certified colorectal surgeon, she specializes in treating cancer of the colon, rectum and anus, and benign conditions such as colon polyps, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, rectal prolapse, hemorrhoids, anal fissures and fistulas, and pelvic floor disorders.Dr. Adegboyega became interested in medicine as a child in her native Nigeria. "I had a play doctor kit," she says. "My mother worked in a hospital, so I was exposed to the health care system and aspired to influence what it could become." In part thanks to this early influence, she maintains a deep interest in public health, especially in our increasingly globally connected society.Before joining Northwell in 2016, Dr. Adegboyega graduated from the University of Minnesota Medical School. She then went on to complete her general surgery residency at Gundersen-Lutheran Medical Center and a fellowship in colon and rectal surgery at Rhode Island Hospital, the main teaching hospital of The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.Dr. Adegboyega works with a variety of health care providers to maximize her patients' care. For those who have cancer, she collaborates with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists and other specialists to develop a comprehensive treatment plan using the latest approaches to care. She may also work with gastroenterologists and urogynecologists, depending on a patient's condition.Whenever possible, Dr. Adegboyega performs minimally invasive surgical procedures, including robotic and laparoscopic approaches. She also specializes in colostomy and ileostomy reversal surgery and diagnostic procedures, such as colonoscopy.In addition to practicing at the Northwell Health Cancer Institute, Dr. Adegboyega is actively involved in resident and medical student education as assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. She is also affiliated with the Katz Institute for Women's Health.Above all, Dr. Adegboyega enjoys addressing people's health concerns and carefully walking them through the treatment process. "I spend a lot of time explaining things to my patients, so they can be as active as of a participant in their health care as they want to be," she says. "I'm grateful for and humbled by the experience."
