Your first visit

Problems of the gut and the back passage are often hidden out of embarrassment. The first visit is private, unhurried, and about finding out whether you need surgery at all.

  1. He listens first

    Your symptoms, how long they have lasted, other illnesses and the medicines you take. You can bring a family member if you wish.

  2. Examination and tests

    A gentle examination, then your scans and reports. A scope test or an ultrasound is advised only when it will change the plan.

  3. A clear plan

    Whether medicines will do, or which procedure is right for you, keyhole or laser, the stay, the cost estimate and how recovery will go.

  • Ultrasound, CT or scope reports
  • Previous prescriptions and discharge summaries
  • A list of your medicines, especially blood thinners and diabetes tablets

Gastrointestinal and colorectal surgery

Conditions treated

Dr. Parameshwara founded Smiles Hospitals as a coloproctology centre, and it has grown into an integrated day-care surgery group across Bengaluru. These are the most common reasons people come to see him.

  • Piles, fissure and fistula

    Bleeding, pain or swelling around the back passage, treated with medicines first, and with laser or stapler procedures when needed.

  • Gallbladder stones

    Pain after meals and repeated attacks, treated by removing the gallbladder through keyhole surgery, usually with a one-night stay.

  • Hernia

    Bulges in the groin, at the belly button or over an old scar, repaired with mesh, often by keyhole surgery.

  • Appendicitis

    Sudden pain in the lower right belly, diagnosed quickly and operated on the same day when needed.

  • Cancers of the digestive system

    Cancers of the stomach, colon, rectum, liver and pancreas, operated on as part of a team plan with medical and radiation oncologists.

  • Pilonidal sinus and abscesses

    Painful infections near the tailbone or around the back passage, drained and treated so they do not keep coming back.

  • Weight and acid reflux surgery

    Surgery for severe reflux and for obesity when diet, exercise and medicines have not been enough.

This list covers the most common reasons for a visit. If your problem is not listed, send a request and ask.

What patients say

Stories from patients and families, in their own words.

    Many problems of the back passage are treated without an operation.

    Fissures and early piles often heal with creams, fibre and warm baths. The panel lists the medicine groups you may hear about before and after a procedure.

    • Tell the surgeon about every blood thinner and diabetes medicine you take.
    • Do not eat or drink for the hours advised before a procedure.
    • Heavy bleeding from the back passage, fever after surgery, or severe belly pain needs a doctor the same day.
