Proctologist Consultation

A proctologist consultation in Lviv at the “Horizons” Medical Center is recommended for anyone experiencing issues with the rectum or anorectal area, such as blood in the stool or pain during defecation. Our doctor performs a gentle examination, establishes a diagnosis, and selects effective treatment. With us, you can get rid of hemorrhoids and other proctological problems.

Service Description

The proctologist collects the patient’s complaints and performs an examination. During the exam, the doctor can assess the condition of the anal canal and rectum. Additional tests may be prescribed if necessary.

Proctologist Consultation

Diagnostics in Proctology:

  • Rectoscopy — examination of the rectal mucosa and part of the sigmoid colon using a device with a light source at the tip. This method is most often used to detect anal fissures, tumors, or hemorrhoids.
  • Colonoscopy — a detailed endoscopic examination of the entire large intestine. It helps detect polyps, tumors, or inflammatory bowel diseases.

Importance of Timely Proctological Checkups

Many patients visit a proctologist only when serious problems arise, such as chronic anal fissures or grade III–IV hemorrhoids. We treat all of these conditions, but at an early stage, minimally invasive procedures can be performed. These minimize pain, shorten recovery time, and reduce the risk of complications. Therefore, even minor complaints should prompt a consultation.
Appointments at our medical center can be booked online or by phone. We help eliminate proctological symptoms and restore an active lifestyle.

  • Treatment — based on the results, the doctor prescribes medication or surgical procedures, as well as lifestyle and diet recommendations.
