When conservative treatments like diet, lifestyle changes, and medications fail to relieve the symptoms of piles (hemorrhoids), surgery becomes necessary. Thanks to medical advancements, patients now have several minimally invasive surgical options – Ligasure, Stapler, and Laser surgery.
At our advanced surgical center, we specialize in all three techniques, with over 25 years of surgical experience and 8,000+ advanced surgeries performed. Our goal is to help you understand your options so you can make an informed decision.
