Drs. Rich DiCicco and Lee Grossbard performed my surgery 4/22/08. I went to 2 other seminars and met a couple other surgeons. I found Grossbard and DiCicco to be VERY... actually the most informative and experienced. DiCicco really seems to have the caring attitude and great bed side manners.

Minimally Invasive Hemorrhoid Treatment

 

There is no reason to be embarrased, to be nervous about the treatment, or to suffer the symptoms that are associated with hemorrhoids. 

Now there is a relatively painless way to treat hemorrhoids. 

We offer both office based and operating room based techniques. 

With rubber banding, the procedure effectively relieves symptoms in more than 99% of the cases, with less than 1% reporting post rubber band bleeding or pain.

 

 

Hemorrhoids

  • Consultation, diagnosis and evaluation of treatment options through patient history, digital rectal exam and anoscopy

Anal  Fissures

  • Consultation, diagnosis and evaluation of treatment options through patient history, visual examination and anoscopy.
  • Treatment of acute and chronic fissures with nitroglycerin ointment and supplemental care guidance.

Colorectal Cancer

  • Evaluation of whether patient meets American Cancer Society screening guidelines,
  • Annual screenings using a fecal occult blood test, performed only after hemorrhoids and/or anal fissures have been treated and resolved.

Obesity: A Disease

Obesity is emerging as a health epidemic around the world. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity is rapidly spreading across all regions and demographic groups. An estimated 97 million adults in the United States are overweight or obese. That figure represents more than 50% of the American adult population. Of this group, 11 million adults suffer from severe obesity.

Obesity is an excess of total body fat, which results from caloric intake that exceeds energy usage. A measurement used to assess health risks of obesity is Body Mass Index (BMI). BMI is calculated by dividing body weight (lbs.) by height in inches squared (in2) and multiplying that amount by 704.5. The metric calculation for BMI is kg/m2.
