We don't treat the surgical condition alone.
Anorectal disease is rarely an isolated problem. Chronic constipation, recurrent diarrhea, diet, hydration and gastrointestinal dysfunction can all drive it — and cause it to return.
So the pathway has two connected stages: first, an accurate diagnosis and the most appropriate treatment for the condition; then, evaluation and management of the factors that contributed to it — using a functional-medicine-informed plan to support healing and reduce recurrence.
Main areas of focus
- Acute & chronic anal fissures
- Internal & external hemorrhoids
- Anal fistula
- Complex & branching fistula
- Perianal abscess
- Pilonidal sinus disease
- Chronic constipation & defecation disorders
- Recurrent & previously-operated cases
