Unique and Painless Procedure Offered at GIC Removes the Need for Hemorrhoid Surgery

Gastroenterology Consultants, Ltd., Removes the Need for Hemorrhoid Surgery with a Unique and Painless Procedure Performed in Less Than a Minute

New, Patented Procedure Now Available in Reno, NV - Hemorrhoids can mask symptoms of colorectal cancer, the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States, and until now, painful surgery was frequently recommended to treat hemorrhoids. Gastroenterology Consultants, Ltd., is now providing a treatment protocol that is clinically proven and utilizes the proprietary and patented CRH O'Regan SystemTM, which is effective, safe and painless. 

The CRH O'Regan SystemTM is only available to consumers through specially trained and licensed medical providers. "Finally I have a safe and effective method to treat my patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids," said Dr. Craig Sande, President and CEO of Gastroenterology Consultants, Ltd. "The CRH O'Regan Hemorrhoid Banding Procedure has a 99.1% effectiveness rate and can be done in my office quickly and painlessly."

This method offers a significant advance in the rubber band ligation technique for effective outpatient treatment of hemorrhoids. Unlike other techniques that use a metal clamp to grasp the hemorrhoid during banding, the CRH O'Regan SystemTM uses a smaller and gentler suction device to minimize discomfort and complications.While other methods rely on re-usable instrumentation, the patented CRH- O'Regan SystemTM instrument is 100% disposable and single use. This eliminates the risk of transferring infectious diseases such as HIV and hepatitis B and C from patient to patient due to inadequately sterilized instrumentation.

The CRH-O' Regan Disposable Hemorrhoid Banding System is the only treatment that requires no pre-or post pain medication, virtually no recovery time and is covered by insurance.
