About Our Proctology Clinic
For over 30 years, our “Proctology Surgery Clinic” has been exclusively dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of anal disorders. Surgeons Apostolos Stamatiadis and Ioannis Gkegkes address the full spectrum of anal diseases with responsibility and consistency. The 30-year experience of the former and the youthful energy and innovation of the latter, combined with a complete range of diagnostic and therapeutic tools, make our clinic a trusted and effective resource for patients seeking accurate diagnosis and relief.
Exclusive Diagnostic Tools
Our clinic is one of the few in Greece offering high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) and endoanal ultrasound for identifying HPV-related lesions, dysplasia, fistulas, abscesses, incontinence, and tumors. These allow us not only to diagnose with precision, but to support and guide other physicians in effective treatment. Many patients come to us with recurrent symptoms or complications after unsuccessful treatments elsewhere.
Therapeutic Philosophy
We are equipped with the most advanced diagnostic and treatment technologies, but we prioritize simple and effective care. We avoid unnecessary surgeries and often treat issues without hospitalization. Our highly trained staff, both medical and administrative, ensures professional and empathetic care at all times.
All treatment recommendations are based on thorough clinical assessment. Patients are asked to be patient with the process, which is always in their best interest. Medical advice is provided honestly and never with financial motivation. Minor procedures are often performed on the spot, bringing immediate relief.
Our principles:
- We do not promote new technologies or surgical tools without scientific merit, just to attract patients.
- We do not use fear tactics like sepsis, embolism, or “hemorrhoid cancer” to pressure patients into surgery.
- We adopt new methods only when they are validated internationally by reputable research centers.
- Our treatments follow international guidelines from the U.S., U.K., and France.
- We aim for complete healing using the simplest, most effective methods—avoiding unnecessary sedation or “painless” surgeries advertised for marketing purposes.
Commitment to Education
We regularly attend and participate in international medical conferences, emphasizing continued education and collaboration with renowned researchers. We also support the training of young surgeons and frequently lecture at national and international proctology meetings. It is a great honor for us to have earned the trust of the medical community through consistent, high-quality care.
