Patients may need to see a proctologist to treat a lower digestive tract disease. MaineHealth has proctologists who specialize in corrective colorectal surgery to provide patients with the best results.
Proctologists preform corrective colorectal surgeries to repair the colon, rectum or anus. They preform surgeries that can involve the removal of parts of organs, or the removal of whole organs, such as the gallbladder.
