Proctology services
Coloproctology is the branch of general surgery that deals with diseases of the colon, rectum, anal canal and perianal area. Some of these diseases cause only discomfort, while others can lead to serious complications if they are not detected in time. At Modern Hospital, Dr. Dilara Hasanova carries out the examination and surgical treatment of these diseases.

Diagnostics and treatment
Note: the pages on colon diseases, irritable bowel syndrome and diverticular disease are mainly educational in nature. In such cases, Dr. Hasanova performs a proctological examination and, when needed, refers the patient for colonoscopy or to a gastroenterologist. Colonoscopy at Modern Hospital is performed by an endoscopist.
