Dr. Bastawrous helped me in the past with this issue thus the reason I went back to him. I have another appointment with him in a little over a week and I am hopeful we can take the next step to address my medical concern. I believe it will require some sort of banding or another procedure. Even with the meds and fiber he recommended they have only gotten somewhat better and continue to cause discomfort and pain. I would recommend him to friends and family If they had a need in this particular specialty - however it's not something you typically talk about.

Dr. Bastawrous was very reassuring and patient with my questions. I feel he is the best choice for my upcoming surgery.
