Rectal Ultrasound

Rectal Ultrasound 

Images the layers of the rectal wall. Used for evaluation of rectal polyps, staging of rectal tumors and also evaluation of enlarged lymph nodes. Is also used for follow-up surveillance after treatment for rectal tumors or advanced polyps. Advanced 3-D Ultrasound technology is also available. This is often performed under sedation at a surgery center as the procedure can be uncomfortable when performed in the office.

Late Policy

New patients must complete the necessary paperwork prior to their first visit using the online patient portal. If the paperwork delays your appointment start time, your appointment might be canceled at the discretion of the provider.

If a patient arrives past their scheduled time and/or do not have their paperwork completed, their appointment might be canceled at the discretion of the provider.  This is to ensure that the patients who arrive on time do not experience delayed waits to see their provider. If you arrive late, you may be asked to reschedule. If you choose to wait, we will try to minimize your wait time as best as possible, however we need to provide timely care to our other patients as well.
