What to Expect at Your Consultation
Your first visit will include a comprehensive evaluation by one of our experienced gastroenterologists. We'll take the time to understand your symptoms, review your medical history, and perform any necessary examinations to determine the best course of action.
Many patients are surprised at how quick and comfortable the process is. Our goal is to make you feel at ease while providing a clear, effective treatment plan for your hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoid Treatments We Offer
NYGA offers two of the most effective nonsurgical hemorrhoid treatment options available today:
HemWell™
HemWell™ is a painless, FDA-cleared treatment that uses a gentle electrical current to resolve all grades of internal hemorrhoids. Performed in our endoscopy centers under anesthesia, it involves no incisions and no downtime—so you can return to normal activities the same day.
Infrared Coagulation (IRC)
Infrared coagulation (IRC) is a painless, FDA-cleared treatment that uses infrared light to treat low-grade internal hemorrhoids. Performed in our office without anesthesia, it is a quick, non-surgical procedure that takes just a few minutes—so you can resume normal activities right away. The procedure may require multiple treatments to resolve the hemorrhoid.
We recommend beginning hemorrhoid treatment with IRC or HemWell™, as banding is more invasive and often less comfortable.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hemorrhoid Treatment in NYC
How do I know if I need to see a hemorrhoid specialist?
If you’re experiencing rectal bleeding, pain, itching, swelling, or a sensation of fullness during bowel movements, it’s time to speak with a specialist. Hemorrhoids are common, but you shouldn’t have to suffer with them.
What’s the best treatment for hemorrhoids?
The right treatment depends on the type and severity of your hemorrhoids. At NYGA, we offer nonsurgical options, such as HemWell™ and IRC, that safely and effectively reduce or eliminate hemorrhoids without downtime or discomfort.
How do I know if I have a hemorrhoid?
Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels in or around the anus. Common signs include itching, bleeding, or a lump in the area near the rectum. Our gastroenterologists can confirm your diagnosis through a brief and gentle examination.
Are hemorrhoid treatments painful?
Most patients describe both HemWell™ and IRC as virtually painless, with no post-procedure discomfort and a prompt return to normal activities.
How long is the recovery after treatment?
There is minimal to no recovery time, and you can return to your normal activities immediately after your appointment.
Will hemorrhoids come back after treatment?
While our treatments often provide long-lasting relief, hemorrhoids can recur. We’ll review contributing factors—such as diet and lifestyle—and how to reduce your risk.
