Anal Disease
Hemorrhoids, fissures, fistulas, and rectal prolapse are common, uncomfortable, and very treatable. Dr. Talbert offers straightforward, respectful care and lasting relief.
Discreet, expert care for a sensitive area
Problems around the anus and rectum, hemorrhoids, fissures, fistulas, and rectal prolapse, are common, uncomfortable, and often embarrassing to talk about. They are also very treatable, and there is no reason to live with symptoms that keep coming back.
Some conditions improve with conservative care, while others, a fissure that will not heal, a fistula that keeps draining, or a prolapse that keeps returning, need a surgical solution. Bleeding, in particular, should be evaluated rather than assumed to be hemorrhoids.
Dr. Talbert offers a straightforward, respectful evaluation, explains what is going on, and recommends the treatment most likely to give you lasting relief.

Answers from Dr. Talbert
A surgical evaluation may be recommended when hemorrhoids are painful, bleeding frequently, recurring, or not improving with conservative treatment. New bleeding should always be checked rather than assumed.
Many anal fistulas do not fully heal on their own and may require surgical treatment. A surgeon can determine the best approach based on the fistula’s location and complexity.
Treatment depends on the severity of the prolapse and the patient’s overall health. In many cases, surgery is recommended to correct the prolapse and improve symptoms.
