Best Colorectal Surgeon in Dhaka & Bangladesh — Piles & Fistula

About colorectal surgeons in Bangladesh

A colorectal surgeon treats diseases of the large bowel (colon), rectum and anus. The most common reasons to see one in Bangladesh are piles (haemorrhoids), anal fissure and fistula, which cause pain, bleeding or discharge and are often left untreated out of embarrassment.

Many of these problems can be treated with medicine, diet changes and simple procedures; surgery, including laser and stapler techniques, is used when needed. Colorectal surgeons in Bangladesh are general surgeons (FCPS or MS Surgery) with further training in colorectal surgery.

How to choose the right colorectal surgeon

Qualifications: Colorectal surgeons in Bangladesh usually hold FCPS (Surgery) or MS (Surgery/Colorectal Surgery) with colorectal training. Each doctor's degrees are shown on their profile above.

Registration: every MBBS and BDS doctor must be registered with the Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council (BMDC). You can check a doctor's registration number on the BMDC website.

Hospital and chamber: a colorectal surgeon attached to a medical college or large hospital has easy access to tests and admission if you need them. For regular follow-up, a chamber close to home with convenient visiting hours often matters just as much.

Experience with your problem: many specialists have a special interest within their field. Read the designation and degrees on each profile, and ask at the first visit how often the doctor treats your condition.
