Anorectal symptoms and complaints are common and may be caused by a wide spectrum of conditions that affect the colon, rectum and anus. Although most conditions are benign and may be successfully treated in the outpatient clinics, a high index of suspicion for colorectal cancer should be maintained and all patients should be appropriately investigated.

We are consulted by patients with anorectal and colonic symptoms such us abdominal pain, anal pain, anal bleeding, rectal bleeding, rectal prolapse, itching around the anus, haemorroids, piles, constipation, diarrhoea, faecal incontinence.

We offer minimally invasive or laparoscopic surgery for conditions such as colorectal cancer, diverticular disease, diverticulitis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and anal fistulae and anal fissures.

For patients with a family history of colon and rectal cancer or polyps, The London ColoRectal clinic offers a comprehensive bowel screening program.

The London Bridge Hospital has taken significant steps to reduce the risk of introducing COVID-!9 virus into the hospital or the outpatient environment.

​

In summary, the hospital has instigated:

​​

• All patients/relatives are screened at reception before entering the hospital

• All patients booked for admission are screened by telephone and surgery delayed by 14 days if they have been to a tier 1&2 country (regardless of contact) or if they have been in contact with someone in the UK

• All patients booking for OP appointments with respiratory symptoms are having telephone appts first with the consultant (all general physicians and respiratory docs have been called to ensure they are aware).

• No NHS transfer or international patient admission is occurring without a COVID negative test within the last 48 hours

• The Urgent Care Centre service at London Bridge Hospital has been temporarily suspended to try to minimise the risk of a COVID-19 patient being admitted or transferring the virus to both staff and patients.

​

However, in line with reducing travelling and contact unless necessary, we are aware that some patients may still need a consultation to reassure or to commence urgent investigations. At The London Colorectal Clinic, we are now able to perform a telephone or web conference consultation on Monday am 09:00 - 12:00 GMT or Wednesday from 18:00-20:00 GMT. Other consultation times may be available on a discussion. If you wish to schedule a telephone/online consultation please see above.
