Personal Biography
Dr. Lechi Ye is a Chief Physician and Associate Professor in the Department of Colorectal Surgery at Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University.

Why Choose Dr. Lechi Ye for Colorectal Care?
Dr. Lechi Ye is a Chief Physician and Associate Professor in the Department of Colorectal Surgery at Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. His clinical work focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of colorectal tumors, including minimally invasive radical surgery, laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures, and sphincter-preserving surgery for low rectal cancer.
For international patients comparing colorectal cancer treatment options in China, his experience is especially relevant to cases involving low rectal cancer, questions about sphincter preservation, or metastatic colorectal cancer requiring a comprehensive treatment approach. A pre-travel remote specialist review gives patients an opportunity to present their pathology, imaging, previous treatment history and key questions before deciding whether to pursue care in Shanghai.
Dr. Ye’s practice is supported by clinical and basic research on colorectal cancer metastasis and recurrence, together with visiting-scholar experience at Yale School of Medicine and the Prince of Wales Hospital at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. His membership in the Liver Metastasis Group of the CACA Colorectal Cancer Professional Committee further reflects his focus on advanced colorectal disease.
Pre-Travel Case Review & Specialist Liaison
