PROCEDURE FOR PROLAPSE AND HEMORRHOIDS - WHAT TO ASK YOUR SURGEON

Before choosing the procedure you wish to have performed, there are questions you should ask the surgeon:
  • What types of procedures have they performed?
  • How many of each procedure have they performed?
  • Why are they recommending the one particular procedure over another?
  • How long will the procedure take?
  • Will this procedure require a hospital stay and how long do they anticipate your hospital stay will last?
  • How long do they expect the recovery process to take?
  • How soon will you be able to return to “normal” activity?
  • Will having the procedure mean having to change how I live, work or eat?
