Beverly Hills colorectal
A Beverly Hills colorectal surgeon is a physician who does surgery on the colon, the rectum or the anus, and may as well be referred to ask proctologist. 

There can be various factors that can lead to a colorectal surgery. Usually, it is intended to remove cancerous sections of the colon where polyps, or fleshy, tubular growths, have proliferated. This is when colorectal surgery becomes an absolute need to extend the patient's life or to make a significant improvement in his health. 

There are also certain conditions that affect the lower bowel where a colorectal surgery may also be considered as necessary options. In this case, a colostomy or a bowel resection may be performed. Hemorrhoids, or those fleshy protrusions from the anus, may also be remedied by colorectal surgery when they become too painful or bothersome for the patient. There can be many other medical conditions that require colorectal surgery, and it all depends on whether or not the physician deems it necessary to be performed on a patient.

    Physicians specializing in proctology are called colorectal surgeons or proctologists. In the United States, to become colorectal surgeons, these surgical doctors have to complete a general surgery residency, as well as a colorectal surgery fellowship, upon which they are eligible to be certified in their field of expertise by the ABCRS or AOBP.
